Logan Barclay speaks during his sentencing hearing on Feb. 11 (Law&Crime).
A Wisconsin man who admitted to fatally shooting his ex-girlfriend in the stomach after an argument over a possible pregnancy was handed a life sentence with the possibility of parole in 50 years.
Logan Barclay, 23, pleaded guilty in November 2024 to first-degree homicide with a domestic abuse modifier, months following the April 2024 shooting death of his ex-girlfriend, Kiersten Hansen, 22. According to the criminal complaint obtained by WMTV, a local NBC affiliate, Barclay told police that on the night of April 16, 2024, he and Hansen went for a walk on a local biking trail. They had an argument about the possibility of her being pregnant for a second time; the two already shared a young son.
Barclay reportedly told police that he “snapped” and shot Hansen in the stomach, leaving her for dead on the trail.
