Henderson guilty in killing of Lloyd McCoy, 11

A jury found Eugene Henderson guilty of killing Lloyd McCoy Jr., 11, and Marvin Chaney, 26, at a house on Wick Street Southeast last year, but found him innocent of most of the gun charges filed against him.

Chris Becker, the assistant Trumbull County prosecutor who handled the case heard in Trumbull County Common Pleas Court, said it was one of the strangest verdicts he’s ever seen, but he still expects Henderson to receive a life prison sentence and spend at least 38 years in prison.

Police say Henderson, 25, of Warren, fired 24 shots from an assault rifle into the house to kill Chaney because Henderson and a co-defendant thought Chaney had stolen from them.
