Monroe Co. man serves life sentence for beating child to death

TOMAH Wis. (WLAX/WEUX) – A Tomah man will spend the rest of his life in prison for the death of a toddler. In April, a jury found 37-year-old Marcus Anderson guilty of 11 charges in Monroe County court including 1st degree intentional homicide and physical abuse of a child.

The charges are from a 2019 incident when Anderson beat three-year-old Kyson Rice to death in Tomah. Today a judge sentenced Anderson to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
