The wife of a man convicted in the 2014 killings of two Northern California sheriff's deputies was found guilty Thursday on several charges related to the crime spree.
A jury found Janelle Monroy, the wife of Luis Bracamontes, guilty on first-degree murder of Placer County sheriff's Detective Mike Davis, attempted murder, carjacking and additional charges.

Monroy's defense team argued that she was forced against her will by her husband to participate in the two-county chase and killings.
However, prosecutor Rod Norgaard told the jury during closing arguments Feb. 7 that Monroy was a willing and active participant with Bracamontes, who was found guilty Friday in a Sacramento County courtroom in the October 2014 deaths of Placer County Detective Mike Davis and Sacramento County Deputy Danny Oliver.
