McCue Found Guilty on First Ballot in Murder Trial
The jury convicted J Samuel McCue of first degree murder in his wife's death.

The courtroom scene showed emotional relatives, a court-ordered delay for motions, and a later procession to McCue's cell as supporters and officials observed the somber exit.
