MIAMI – A man accused of killing a Coral Gables jogger in 2007 was found guilty Monday.
Kendrick Silver was convicted in the shooting death of Jose Marchese-Berrios.
Police said Silver and his partner-in-crime, Oniel Pedley, who is already facing a life sentence, killed Marchese-Berrios as they went on a violent crime spree throughout South Florida.
Prosecutors said Silver was the person who pulled the trigger.
"The bottom line is he was engaged in a robbery, and during the commission of the robbery, he killed Jose Marchese-Berrios," assistant state attorney Gail Levine told jurors during her closing statements.
Silver's attorney argued that his client fired the gun with no real intent to kill.
"He fires one shot, almost wildly," attorney Steven Yermish said. "I mean, think about the downward angle and the left to right angle. This isn't some, 'Oh, I'm going to execute you,' shoot him dead on in the center of the chest (or) shoot him in the head."
Silver could face the death penalty when he is sentenced.
