Issiah Ross guilty of 2nd-degree murder in Devin Clark's death; mistrial declared in Woods' case

The jury has found Issiah Ross guilty of second-degree murder in the death of Devin Clark in September 2022.

Before the verdict was read, Judge Stephanie Reese told the court: "This is an extremely horrific situation. All of these young people ... the jury has clearly worked extremely hard in trying to do the right thing and has been working tirelessly in reaching a decision. Because of that, I want everybody to know there will be no reaction to the jury's verdict, whether good or bad."

Reese asks those in the courtroom that if anyone felt they could not hold back reactions to leave the room. Otherwise, the bailiff would take people who react into custody.

The jury then returned, and the verdict of guilty of second-degree murder was read.
