Jury delivers verdict in high-stakes criminal trial
In a significant courtroom session, the jury delivered its verdict on multiple charges against defendant Adele Vilafuete Mora. The jury found Mora guilty of evading arrest with a vehicle and tampering with physical evidence, while also convicting co-defendant Bridal Villafuete Mora of possession of a controlled substance. However, the jury acquitted Adele Vilafuete Mora of aggravated assault against a peace officer.

Following the verdict, the court announced the transition to the punishment phase for the first three convictions. Both the prosecution and defense expressed readiness to proceed, with a brief recess scheduled to prepare for this next stage. The court also released the alternate jurors, acknowledging their important role throughout the trial.

Additionally, the state’s attorneys withdrew certain exhibits from evidence, including a firearm linked to the case, which was granted for forfeiture due to the felony conviction. The session underscored the judicial process's procedural aspects as the court moved forward with sentencing considerations.
