Former University student Aaron Robinson was found guilty on charges of malicious wounding and using a firearm to commit wounding yesterday at Albemarle Circuit Court.
Robinson was tried for the April 28, 2004, shooting of Jamaine Winbourne, a then-fourth-year student and member of the University football team, in the left leg with a .40-caliber gun. Winborne currently plays on the Baltimore Ravens practice squad as a defensive back.
Robinson's two-day trial culminated yesterday with a nearly 5-hour deliberation by the jury.
A judge will officially sentence Robinson April 26, but the jury recommended a minimum five year sentence for the malicious wounding charge. According to Virginia mandatory minimum sentencing regulations, Robinson must serve at least three years
