The Press-Enterprise is reporting that Christopher White was found guilty of all charges against him today stemming from a Highland liquor store robbery and double murder in 2005.
White was convicted on two counts of first-degree murder in the shootings of Cee Vee's Liquor Store owner Steven Hall, 53, and clerk Brian Gregorio, 25, on March 16, 2005. The men had cooperated with the robbers but were shot anyway.
A jury composed of seven women and five men needed only a few hours to convict White on all counts, including two counts of robbery and counts related to deadly use of a firearm.
The victims' families, who cheered and applauded as the verdicts were read, were quickly admonished by Judge Brian McCarville, who previously warned them to maintain proper courtroom decorum.
White is scheduled to be sentenced in February. MORE>>
