A jury of eight men and four women deliberated for more than forty hours before finding holtzclaw guilty of rape and Sexual Battery in all, 18 of the 36 charges he faced. Outside the courtroom, demonstrators had little sympathy for holtzclaw, who was convicted on his twentyninth birthday. Happy birthday to you while some of thehe find justice i ithe guilty verdict, others worry about what the punishment will be when holtzclaw is formally sentenced in january. Im sure that theyre going to try and run it together so he wont see nothing but 30 years, and thats not faiai to us. Its not fair to my daughtete its not fair to any of the victims or the people of our community. Ho ltzclaw was fired from the Police Department last year, when the allegations surfaced; one woman came forward to accuse him of sexual impropriety during a traffic stop.

Holtzclaw and members of his family have maintained that he wasnt guilty of those crimes. His life in prison.
