Guilty Verdict in Milwaukee Drug Deal Tragedy | Milwaukee News

Gregory Hamilton just got convicted of felony murder and armed robbery in Milwaukee after a jury found him responsible for the death of Cory Fritz in 2025 — a botched drug deal that turned deadly. Hamilton and Travis Cooper allegedly set up an ambush for edibles, with Cooper carrying out the robbery and Fritz being shot. Evidence from phone records and Cooper’s home — where investigators found drugs and Fritz’s bag — sealed the prosecution’s case. Cooper, who already pleaded guilty, will now face sentencing alongside Hamilton, both scheduled for court next Thursday, August 20th. A life lost, a verdict delivered — and justice, however grim, has spoken. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
