The trial tested the state’s Stand Your Ground law, which allows people to use deadly force in self-defense in certain situations.
Lorincz was charged with manslaughter with a firearm and pleaded not guilty. She faces up to 30 years in prison, according to State Attorney Bill Gladson’s office. No sentencing date has been set.
Lorincz, wearing a purple sweater over a dark dress, stood and showed no emotion as the verdict was read and the jury polled. Friends and members of the victim’s family wept in the front row.
“This has been a long journey to get to this day, to get to this verdict,” the victim’s mother, Pamela Dias, told reporters outside the Ocala courthouse.
“I am very pleased with the jury, the prosecution, the verdict … I find some peace with that verdict. I feel that although my daughter is gone forever, the children’s mom is gone forever, we’ve achieved some justice for Ajike. My heart is a little lighter and we’re now on the path to healing.”
