BOULDER — Kevin McGregor was found guilty Thursday of first-degree murder, felony murder, attempted aggravated robbery and felony menacing in the shooting death of Todd Walker on University Hill last year.
He was immediately sentenced to life without parole.
The verdict, delivered just after 5 p.m. by a jury of nine men and three women, validates the prosecution’s contention that McGregor went out early on March 18 intending to commit robbery and prepared to use violence.
Defense attorneys for McGregor, 23, of Longmont, had said McGregor whistled at Walker’s friend, Elizabeth Roach, then got in a confrontation with Walker. After McGregor fired a shot in the air, the men got in a struggle over the gun and it went off, they said.
