Sydney Powell was found guilty this week of murdering her mother.<\/p>\n
A jury in Summit County, Ohio convicted the now 23-year-old former college student on Wednesday for the 2020 slaying.<\/p>\n
Powell, an Akron native, faced charges of murder, felonious assault and tampering with evidence; she was found guilty on all those counts in connection with the murder of her 50-year-old mother Brenda Powell.<\/p>\n
“In March of 2020, Powell struck Brenda Powell in the head with an iron skillet, then stabbed her nearly 30 times in the neck,” the prosecutor’s office said in a press release.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Powell was 19 at the time of her mother’s death.<\/p>\n
The former Mount Union University student wept while the verdicts were read, per the Akron Beacon Journal.<\/p>\n
The prosecution argued Powell did not want her mother to learn she had been kicked out of college.<\/p>\n
Authorities say, Brenda died at a local hospital after her daughter attacked her. She was a child life specialist at Akron Children\u2019s Hospital for nearly three decades, according to CourtTV.<\/p>\n
