In 4th Trial:Ex-Oklahoma Officer is convicted of Killing Daughter's Boyfriend
Quote:TULSA, Okla. — A white former Oklahoma police officer was convicted of first-degree manslaughter in the off-duty fatal shooting of his daughter's black boyfriend after jurors in three previous trials couldn't decide whether to find him guilty of murder.
Jurors deliberated about six hours Wednesday night before finding ex-Tulsa officer Shannon Kepler, 57, guilty of the lesser charge in the August 2014 killing of Jeremey Lake, 19, who had just started dating Kepler's daughter, Lisa, then 18.
