An inmate of the Ross Correctional Institution was found guilty of murdering his cellmate February 14th, after only an hour of deliberation in Ross County Common Pleas Court Wednesday.
The Chillicothe Gazette reports that 35-year-old Darryl King of Eaton, Ohio, was found guilty of killing Alex Sapp of Newark. The testimony of a forensic pathologist who did the autopsy implied that King kicked Sapp to death.
King had 28 days left in prison for assault, domestic violence, and possession at the time. He will be sentenced next month.
