A Milwaukee County judge sentenced 42-year-old Salah Salahadyn on Monday, November 10th to seven years in prison and another five years of extended supervision. Salahadyn pleaded guilty in October to a robbery charge related to the case of the stolen Stradivarius violin. The valuable instrument was stolen from concertmaster Frank Almond following a concert in Wauwatosa this past January.
Salahadyn was accused of tasing Almond and then grabbing the valuable violin as Almond fell to the ground.

The other man charged in the case, Universal Allah, was sentenced in July to three-and-a-half years in prison and three-and-a-half years of extended supervision for his role in the theft. Allah pleaded guilty to a felony count of robbery as party to a crime. Prosecutors say Allah provided the stun gun used to attack Almond as he left the performance.
Police recovered the 300-year-old Stradivarius violin in good condition nine days after it was taken.
