The charge stems from an incident on Saturday, August 10, 2024, when Oshkosh police were called to the 500 block of High Avenue for a report of a stabbing.
According to investigators, Crossman and the victim—who was known to him—were involved in an altercation with multiple people. During the incident, Crossman, then 23, stabbed the 20-year-old victim, also from Oshkosh.
The victim was taken to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries and later died.
Crossman fled the scene, and police located him the following day, August 11, shortly before 3:45 a.m. at a residence in the area.
Crossman is scheduled to return to court for sentencing on June 23, 2025. He faces up to 10 years in prison, with the possibility of a 12-year sentence due to a repeat offense enhancement, and up to $25,000 in fines.
