Wisconsin Rapids Man Given 20 Years for Killing Wife’s Friend

A Wood County judge has sentenced a Wisconsin Rapids man to 20 years in prison for killing his wife’s friend.  Fifty-nine-year-old Mark Kusters thought the victim was having an affair with his wife.  He was found guilty of first-degree reckless homicide in November and was sentenced Tuesday.  Kusters was arrested in September 2016 when officers found Richard Flynn lying on the ground with two gunshot wounds.  He died after being taken to a hospital.  Kuster’s wife says she and her husband were at her house in Grand Rapids when Flynn peeked in through the front door.  She says Kuster grabbed his shotgun, went outside and told Flynn to leave, then shot him.
