PORT ORCHARD, Wash. (AP) — A woman who was riding with Joshua Blake when he killed a Washington State Patrol trooper has been convicted in Port Orchard of rendering criminal assistance.
A Kitsap County Superior Court jury returned the guilty verdict Friday against 19-year-old Megan G. Mollet.
The Kitsap Sun reports (http://is.gd/vUle6K ) she also was convicted of making false statements to police looking for Blake after he shot Trooper Tony Radulescu (rad-ihl-EHS’-kyoo) in February near Gorst.
Mollet said she lied because she felt threatened by Blake. He later took his own life.
