A 68-year-old Martinsburg man faces up to 48 years in prison after a Berkeley County jury convicted him of attempted second-degree murder, four counts of malicious assault and illegally possessing a firearm.
Russell Lorenzo Brown was convicted October 16 in connection with a February 15 incident at the Cozy Hideaway Bar on Eagle School Road in Martinsburg. He faces a potential sentence of 10 years and three months to 48 years.
The Berkeley County Sheriff’s Department investigated the case. Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Shannon Frederick Kiser prosecuted the three-day trial, which was presided over by Judge Laura V. Faircloth.
Berkeley County Prosecuting Attorney Raymond E. Boyce Jr. credited Sheriff’s Department Deputies J. Giangola and A. Weidman and Sergeants T. Dopson and D. Ritchie for their investigative work.
