The verdict is in: Lejuan Wainwright, who has been on trial since last Wednesday for the stabbing death of 20-year-old Walton resident Tyler Warner, was found guilty today of second-degree manslaughter.
It's a lesser charge than the one the prosecution was seeking: First-degree manslaughter. But Wainwright, who claimed he acted in self-defense, will still face 5 to 15 years in prison.
