The family says their heartbreak is hardly over.
The University of Wisconsin-Madison student was found dead inside her apartment in 2008.
Kahl was a previous person of interest but wasn’t arrested for the murder until 2020. He was sentenced to life in prison on Thursday after agreeing to a plea deal. “How technology has moved forward in forensics, I think that ended up being key,” said Madison Police Det. Daniel Nale.While running a door-to-door scam in the neighborhood, Kahl stopped at Zimmermann’s home. High on drugs and paranoid, he lost it when he saw her on the phone.“It was much more about him letting go of a secret and ensuring that he provided closure to all of the people who spent a lot of time, energy, and emotion,” said defense attorney Ben Gonring.
The defense requested Kahl start his life sentence immediately because the prison system can treat his health issues better than jail.
