New York’s Staten Island. A 35-year-old Brooklyn man was given a 10-and-a-half-year prison sentence for his heinous act of violence on a woman on Staten Island.
On December 16, 2024, Antonio Wade, who lived in Brooklyn in the 1600 block of Nostrand Avenue, entered a guilty plea to first-degree assault and was given his sentence. Five years of post-release supervision are part of the sentence.
