CNN
A Memphis jury found Billy Ray Turner guilty of first degree murder, attempted first-degree murder and conspiracy after deliberating three hours.
Wright was last seen July 18, 2010, while visiting his children at his ex-wife's home in Collierville, near Memphis, shortly before midnight. Wright is believed to have been killed on July 19, 2010, when gunshots were heard during his 911 call. His body was found in a wooded area in southeast Memphis nine days later.

Janet Mills and her allies are counting on a gender gap to narrow Platner’s wide lead ahead of the June 9 primary to decide who will face incumbent Republican Sen. Susan Collins. They are betting that the unfiltered style that has brought Platner widespread attention as someone who could help Democrats reach young men will backfire with women.
