BRIDGEPORT In a rare two-to-one decision, a three-judge panel found a local woman guilty of conspiring with two men to kill her husband in 2019.
“I’ve cried everyday since my son was killed but today, I can finally say justice was served,” said Tammy Pendergrass-Green, the mother of Dathan “Daedae” Gray.
Larise King, 36, showed no emotion as she sat at the defense table as the verdict was announced by Superior Court Judge Tracy Lee Dayton. Her family, who had sat in the back of the courtroom since the trial began last Tuesday, were quickly ushered out of the courthouse by judicial marshals.
