A jury convicted Markell Price and Majestic Malone of Second Degree Murder and Third Degree Kidnapping.

The verdict came at about 1:30 p.m.

The Jury declined to convict the two men on charges of First Degree Murder and First Degree Kidnapping and instead convicted them on lesser charges.

County Attorney Lisa Schaefer said she is pleased with the verdict but said she would not discuss the case further until the two are sentenced. She also refused to comment on whether additional charges will be filed.

KBUR has reached out to attorneys for both Malone and Price but has not yet received a comment.
