“What happened is she’s dead, and my brother knows I was trying to get him, too," Timmy Keene told investigators, according to audio played for jurors during trial Tuesday.
It took a Tampa jury two hours Thursday to find defendant Timmy Keene guilty of killing his mother Mary Keene and attempting to kill his brother, Raymond Keene.

TAMPA, Fla. - A Tampa mother will never enjoy another Christmas with her family. She was murdered two weeks ago, detectives say, by her own son. Timmy Keene told detectives that he should have never had a gun.
At a virtual bond hearing, Keene asked a judge to let him out of jail, but prosecutors objected.
Keene is charged with attempted murder and first-degree murder. Two weeks ago, investigators say, Keene was in an argument with his mother, Mary Keene, when his brother, Raymond, tried to intervene.
