Lyon County District Court Judge Lee Fowler found Devawn Mitchell, 24, guilty Tuesday after a bench trial. Prosecutors said Mitchell was fleeing from officers in Emporia last March when he collided with a pickup truck, killing Steven Henry, 64.
Experts testified Mitchell was driving about 100 mph when his car hit Henry's truck. Mitchell is scheduled to be sentenced March 11.
