Woman found guilty of killing stepfather after finding nude images of herself on his computer

A California woman has been found guilty in the death of her stepfather after prosecutors said she found nude images of herself on his computer, the San Diego district attorney confirmed on Wednesday.

Jade Janks, a 39-year-old interior designer from Solana Beach, was convicted of first-degree murder after the jury deliberated for just over one day, CBS affiliate KFMB-TV reported.  Prosecutors say Janks drugged her stepfather, Tom Merriman, and strangled him on Dec. 31, 2020.

She faces a sentence of up to life in prison when she is sentenced next spring.
