On Thursday, a Macomb County jury convicted Jeffery Clark, a 33 year-old man from Detroit, on all charges including first degree murder after a two day jury trial by Assistant Prosecutor Steve Fox. The jury returned a guilty verdict on all counts in 45 minutes before Macomb County Circuit Court Judge Diane Druzinski.
The murder occurred in the City of Fraser on Monday, July 4, 2022. Clark shot Jerray Robertson after chasing him down in an apartment complex parking lot.
Clark was convicted of First Degree Premeditated Murder (life felony), Felon in Possession of a Firearm (5 year felony), and two counts of Felony Firearm (2 year mandatory felony).
“Thank you to the jury who quickly came back with a guilty verdict on all charges. I hope this verdict helps the family of the victim begin to find closure, knowing the defendant was convicted of this heinous crime,” said Macomb County Prosecutor Peter J. Lucido.
Jeffery Clark will be sentenced in front of Druzinski on Tuesday, September 19, at 8:30 a.m.
