Michigan Live reports:
A Shiawassee County judge has found Mark David Latunski, the man who previously admitted to killing and dismembering 25-year-old Kevin Bacon of Swartz Creek, guilty of first-degree murder.
The ruling came following a day and a half of testimony in a rare degree hearing in which Judge Matthew J. Stewart was tasked with determining whether Latunski was guilty of first-degree murder, second-degree murder or manslaughter after previously pleading guilty to open murder.
Latunski, 53, made his plea in September. The plea to open murder necessitated a degree hearing, during which Stewart was tasked with determining – based on the evidence in the case – the degree of homicide Latunski was guilty of.

Mark David Latunski was found guilty of first-degree murder, meaning he’ll be sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. https://t.co/GMgYG3CzlP
