Marcus Randle El, the younger brother of former Steelers standout Antwaan Randle El and a former wide receiver for the Wisconsin Badgers, was found guilty of killing two women in Wisconsin in 2020.
An Associated Press report that a jury held Randle El responsible for the shooting deaths of Seairaha Winchester, 30, and Brittany McAdory, 27, in Janesville, Wisconsin, guilty of two counts of first-degree murder.
During the trial, prosecutors said that Randle El thought Winchester was a police informant who was trying to get him to sell narcotics, and that he also killed McAdory to get rid of her as a potential witness in the first murder.
