A Fond du Lac man convicted in the shooting death of a Beaver Dam man will die in prison.    Dodge County Circuit judge Martin DeVries sentenced 21 year old Nigel Schultz to life in prison with no chance for parole.   Last August Schultz pled guilty to First Degree Intentional Homicide in the death of Bradlee Gerke of Beaver Dam.  According to a criminal complaint shortly after being released from prison for a previous felony, Schultz  shot Gerke 16 times in the back of the head and torso and buried Gerke in a shallow grave.  Schultz told sheriff’s deputies he killed Gerke because Gerke was going to turn him into police.
