A Westchester man may spend the rest of his life in prison after being found guilty of murdering another man following a minor incident with his girlfriend, the District Attorney announced.
Mount Vernon resident Savion Kiron, age 27, was convicted of murder last week in the first jury trial to take place in Westchester County Court since last fall due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Specifically, Kirton was convicted of second-degree murder for the June 2019 stabbing of Jermial Rose in the neck, resulting in his death. Westchester County District Attorney Mimi Rocah said that the jury deliberated for 90 minutes before returning the guilty verdict.
