The verdict has been delivered in the 2nd degree murder trial of Kenneth Ivall.
The jury found that Ivall was guilty in the beating death of Ed Wilson in the early morning hours of March 21, 2009.
Defense Lawyer Chris Watkins says they accept the verdict as the the jury has done a professional job during the over 6 week trial.
Watkins is advising Ivall to appeal the decision, which he says is a standard procedure in a case of this caliber.
Justice Terrence Platana will hand down his sentencing on June 14th after a pre-sentencing report is completed.
Ivall faces life in prison.
