Today Seth Cravens was found guilty of the second-degree murder of pro-surfer Emery Kauanui. Sentencing will be held on January 12. For a short time the jury was reported deadlocked 11-1 however they reached an agreement today.

Cravens' attorney, Mary Ellen Attridge, had told jurors that her client acted in self-defense. Prosecutors contended that the only person who acted in self-defense was Kauanui, who suffered a skull fracture and died in the hospital four days later.

The five men, all graduates of La Jolla High School, were known as "The Bird Rock Bandits" and had engaged in many alcohol-fueled fights in the neighborhood over several years, prosecutors said during the trial.
The other members of the group pleaded guilty and have received jail sentences ranging from 90 days to 349 days.
