“The reckless and cowardly actions of the defendant can never be undone – but this result is a critical step towards justice for those that he victimized and their families,” said Attorney General Kathy Jennings. “As we move towards sentencing, I will ensure that my office continues to be uncompromising in its pursuit of justice in this case. I’m grateful to our DOJ trial team and our law enforcement partners in Newark for their diligent work in securing these convictions.”

“This was a senseless tragedy that deeply impacted our entire community,” said Newark Police Department Chief Mark Farrall. “This conviction is an important step toward justice for the victims and their families, who have endured unimaginable loss and pain. I could not be prouder of the Newark Police Department employees who responded to this tragic incident, managed an extraordinarily difficult scene, and carried this case forward with professionalism, compassion, and resolve.”
