Stabbing took place while he was 17 years old

A Hillsboro, Wis., teenager will spend nine years in prison for stabbing another man in the neck.

Mathew Gebhardt was sentenced Friday for second-degree attempted murder.

The 18-year-old Gebhardt – who was 17 at the time of the stabbing – and three others were in a house together a year ago in Neilsville, Wis., when he allegedly gave his sister permission to punch him in the face if she drank a shot.

After she punched him, Gebhardt’s girlfriend got mad, which led to a fight. The girlfriend’s husband got mixed in.

Gebhardt pulled out a three-inch bladed knife, and stabbed his sister’s 27-year-old husband three times in the back of the neck. 

Gebhardt told authorities he couldn’t stop and that he was defending himself.

    Charles Manson’s mama said he was a good kid too lol. Little punk got what he deserved. He should be there for LIFE or better yet get the death penalty. He took someone’s life. Good parenting there mama.

    Charles Manson’s mother, he never killed the guy. He was out of hospital a week after. He is just fine. You can even see marks on Mathews neck were he was choked and this story is saying nothing about what happened before the stabbing. There is way more to this story just like Dena said. They need to get the facts straight. The guy never died.
