On a cold case that 9&10 News profiled in 2021 as part of our Unsolved series, the man charged with shooting and killing a Midland man in 2015 was convicted Tuesday during a bench trial.
A bench trial means a jury was not involved and a judge decided on a verdict.
The man, Marcos Torres, was charged in January of last year with killing Dakota Rico in Saginaw in 2015.

His arrest came just months after 9&10 aired a story on Dakota’s death.
The judge found Torres guilty on murder and weapons charges. He will be sentenced later this month.
