Sturgeon Bay woman arrested for murder

A $1 million cash bond was set for a Sturgeon Bay woman Tuesday after she was charged with first-degree intentional homicide. Just after 12:30 AM , Sturgeon Bay Police were called to an apartment building at 1834 Florida Street, where they found a 52-year-old Susan Soukup out front. She told the officers twice that she had stabbed a person. The body of another woman was found in the hallway of Apartment C, where Soukup lives, with several critical stab wounds to her back and neck. The victim was treated on scene and taken to the hospital but did not survive the attack. She was pronounced dead at Door County Medical Center at 2:21 AM at just 32 years old. The victim’s identity has not yet been announced.

 

Captain Dan Brinkman says the crime lab in Milwaukee was called immediately for assistance and their investigation of the scene was still as of 3 PM Tuesday.

 


Soukup had a hearing Tuesday afternoon in court. If found guilty, Soukup could face up to life in prison.
