A jury on Monday convicted a career criminal for gunning down US-based Guyanese cop Randolph Holder and he now faces a mandatory life sentence without the possibility of parole.

According to a report in the New York Daily News, Tyrone Howard, 32, was found guilty by a Manhattan jury of the 2015 killing of the Guyanese following four days of deliberations.

The report said that as the verdict was read out, Holder’s father, Randolph Holder Sr., his stepmother, Princess Holder, and other relatives wept and consoled each other.

Four of the jurors left the courtroom in tears at the conclusion of the month-long trial.
