A jury convicted 34-year-old Shawn Laval Smith for the brutal murder of Brianna Kupfer. The UCLA student was killed at a furniture store in Hancock Park two years ago. This horrifying crime should spark outrage over the growing dangers in Democrat-led cities like Los Angeles.
Smith was convicted for the Jan. 13, 2022, attack on Kupfer. Jurors confirmed a special circumstance of murder while lying in wait. They also found that he used a knife during the crime.
