The three-day trial resulted in guilty verdicts of first-degree murder and discharge of a firearm.
Prosecutors and police also went to some extraordinary effort to bring in an important witness.
“We are very glad Tyrone Williams’ murderer has been brought to justice,” said State’s Attorney Tom Haine. “I hope this will provide some measure of relief to his family. Assistant State’s Attorneys Lauren Maricle and Katie Warren did tremendous work bringing this case together. It was a true team effort. They should be very proud.”
