TULSA — The jury didn’t take long to come up with a verdict Wednesday afternoon in the case against Stanley Majors.
Jury members found Majors guilty in the August 2016 shooting death of Khalid Jabara outside of his south Tulsa home.
Prosecutors alleged that Majors killed Jabara after bombarding him with racial insults in a feud with Jabara's family for years.
Defense attorneys argued in court papers that Majors showed signs of dementia and appeared to have problems with his long-term memory.
They said those issues interfered with their ability to prepare a defense.
Majors previously pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder and malicious intimidation and harassment, which is Oklahoma's hate-crime law.
The jury recommended life without parole.
