Description
An Adams County jury convicted Jeremy Rocha on multiple counts Friday, including first-degree murder and attempted murder related to the shooting death of volunteer firefighter John Jaros during a street racing incident in June 2022.
Rocha was found guilty of one count of second-degree murder, a conviction of a lesser charge of first-degree murder after deliberation. The jury also convicted him on one count of first-degree murder - extreme indifference and four counts of attempted murder related to family members who were in the truck with Jaros.
Jaros, a Glen Haven volunteer firefighter, was shot and killed while driving with his wife and children on Interstate 70 near Tower Road. They had planned to go camping for Father's Day weekend.
