An Alpena County jury deliberated for five hours on Thursday before convicting Brad Srebnik, 37, of first-degree murder in the 2021 deaths of Brynn Bills and Abby Hill.

The verdict followed a two-week trial in which prosecutors and police detailed how Srebnik strangled Bills to death in an Alpena home, then buried her body in the backyard of his friend, Joshua Wirgau.
