LEXINGTON, Ky. -- Four men have been found guilty in the fatal shooting of 15-year-old Trinity Gay, the daughter of Olympian and former Arkansas Razorback Tyson Gay.
News outlets reported that a jury returned the verdicts Monday after deliberating for nearly five hours.
Jurors pronounced Chazerae Taylor guilty of wanton murder and four counts of wanton endangerment. His son, D'Markeo Taylor, was found guilty of wanton endangerment. D'Vonta Middlebrooks was found guilty on one count of wanton endangerment but was acquitted on five other counts of the same charge. Lamonte Williams was found guilty on five counts of wanton endangerment.
Authorities said Trinity Gay was an innocent bystander who died in 2016 after being shot in the neck during a shootout in a parking lot.
Tyson Gay said he's glad his daughter got some justice.
Tyson Gay was part of a team that won a silver medal in the 4x100-meter relay at the 2012 London Games, though that medal was ultimately stripped after Gay tested positive for steroids in 2013.
He also collected two NCAA titles and five SEC championships as a sprinter at the University of Arkansas.
