YOUNGSTOWN –Judge Anthony D’Apolito of Mahoning County Common Pleas Court today found Brian Donlow Jr. guilty on all counts after a two-day trial in which Donlow served as his own lawyer.
Donlow listened calmly to the verdicts and was later led from the courtroom without incident. He will be sentenced later.
Donlow, 26, and two other men were charged with aggravated murder and other offenses in the Nov. 18, 2018, shooting death of Christopher Jackson Jr., 21, of Warren. Jackson was found dead in a car at the corner of Bennington and Stewart avenues on the East Side.
Donlow also was convicted of the attempted murder of Carlos Davis of Warren, a second man in the car.
The two other defendants will be tried separately in August. Donlow is already serving a 21-years-to life sentence in another murder case.
