A New York man has been convicted of vehicular homicide in a road-rage incident that led to a fatal crash on New Jersey's Garden State Parkway.
The Record newspaper reports a jury handed down the verdict against 24-year-old John Emili on Wednesday.
Prosecutors say Emili was driving 63-year-old Annetta Billingy to church on July 1, 2012, when he cut off a Chevrolet TrailBlazer being driven by Thomas Vanderweit. The two drivers made numerous lane changes and tailgated at high speeds for the next few miles.
Investigators say Vanderweit "brake-checked" the vehicle, touching off a crash that ejected Billingy from Emili's car, killing her.
Vanderweit has been sentenced to six years in state prison.
Emili faces up to 10 years behind bars when he's sentenced on May 13.
