RHINELANDER — The 26-year-old Rhinelander man who knew for weeks of Christopher Anderson’s plans to kill Hannah Miller last year was sentenced to 5 1/2 years in prison and an additional 6 1/2 years of extended supervision after his release for his role in Miller’s death on Tuesday at Oneida County Court in Rhinelander. Seth Wakefield pleaded no contest to an amended charge of second-degree reckless homicide. Wakefield was arrested and charged with being a party to a crime of first-degree intentional homicide on June 30, 2021. According to court records, Wakefield, a friend of Anderson’s, was aware for weeks that Anderson planned to kill Miller and her parents, and then abduct the child he shared with Miller. Court records show Anderson also asked Wakefield to conduct surveillance of Miller’s apartment on at least two occasions before her death.
