A New Orleans jury on Thursday convicted a man of murder and manslaughter for his role in an interstate highway shooting two years ago that killed three people and injured two more. Though prosecutors had sought to convict 35-year-old Tyree Quinn on three counts of second-degree murder, the jury returned a lesser verdict, finding him guilty of one count of second-degree murder and two counts of manslaughter in the killings.

Nearly 50 years after a man raped Jennifer Brush in her Uptown apartment, a jury delivered a conviction in the case Thursday, ending Brush’s decades-long quest for closure and justice.
