A man accused of stabbing his grandfather in the neck in an unprovoked attack at his home in the Minnehaha area was convicted Friday of attempted first-degree murder.
The Clark County Superior Court jury returned the guilty verdict against 27-year-old Zakary A. French after deliberating for about an hour.
In addition to the charge, jurors also found the crime was committed against a family member with a deadly weapon, as well as an aggravating factor egregious lack of remorse that allows for an exceptional sentence. Jurors also had the option to consider a lesser-included charge of attempted second-degree murder.
