Christopher Davis has been convicted of murder and robbery in connection with the death of a Johnson City woman.

A Broome County Court jury this afternoon found the 44-year-old Davis guilty of first-degree and second-degree murder; and first-degree robbery.

Prosecutors said Davis killed 50-year-old Patricia LaCaprara in her Brown Street apartment.

LaCaprara's body was discovered on July 8 of last year. Authorities ruled she died as a result of traumatic head injuries.

Police had said they believed LaCaprara was killed as Davis burglarized the woman's apartment.

LaCaprara owned the house. Davis lived in the upstairs apartment.

Judge Martin Smith scheduled sentencing for January 2.
