NYC Jury Refuses Murder Conviction for Cop-Killer Guy Rivera in Point-Blank Killing of NYPD Detective Jonathan Diller

A New York City jury handed down a split verdict this week in the high-profile trial of Guy Rivera, the 36-year-old career criminal charged in the 2024 shooting death of NYPD Detective Jonathan Diller.

Rivera was acquitted of first-degree murder but convicted of the lesser charge of aggravated manslaughter in the first degree.

The killer was also found guilty of attempted murder in the first degree for trying to shoot a second officer at the scene and two counts of criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree.
