The jury of 11 women and one man deliberated about two days before finding John Kirk McKinney of Huntington Beach guilty of second-degree murder. He now faces a 15 years to life in state prison at his June 15 sentencing by Superior Court Judge Thomas Goethals.
Prosecutors had charged McKinney with one felony count of special circumstances murder in the commission of a robbery in the 2003 Veteran's Day attack that killed Cecil "Lucky" Warren.
