Chicago dad found guilty of gruesome 2008 killing of 9-year-old daughter

An Illinois jury took only two and a half hours Friday to find a Chicago dad guilty of the gruesome 2008 murder of his 9-year-old daughter. Richard Lyons, 45, at first claimed little Mya Lyons was abducted, strangled, stabbed and left for dead in an alleyway after she encountered a would-be burglar late at night on July 14, 2008. Richard Lyons even presented himself as the hero, bringing his dead daughter’s body to the hospital, claiming he’d found her and needed help. But a Cook County jury saw through the killer’s farce, determining he beat and stabbed the defenseless little girl to death after he became enraged when she came home late from a friend’s house, the Chicago Tribune reported.
