Chicago Man Gets 10 Years In Prison For Shooting Woman Outside La Crosse Bar

He was recruited to be a ‘hit man,’ to travel to a strange city and shoot someone he had never met…

Cordero Short of Chicago did injure somebody in La Crosse last year…the girlfriend of the man he had been assigned to shoot.  In a La Crosse court today, Short apologized to that woman for the physical and emotional pain he has caused her.  He also apologized to people in the area, and admitted causing pain to his family…especially his infant son, born after Short’s arrest a year ago.  Short is ordered to serve 10 years in a Wisconsin prison for attempted murder.
