Description
A former Hillsborough County ice cream truck driver was found guilty Tuesday morning of killing two brothers more than 12 years ago.
The double murder trial of Michael Keetley first ended in a mistrial in 2020 after a jury was unable to reach a verdict; his retrial began in March.
The case dates back to 2010, when investigators said Keetley was beaten up, shot and robbed while working from his ice cream truck and then became obsessed with revenge. Keetley then shot six people, killing two of them, on Thanksgiving Day 2010 outside a Ruskin home, according to law enforcement.
Keetley was charged with two counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Sergio Guitron and Juan Guitron — and the attempted murders of Daniel Beltran, Gonzalo Guevara, Ramon Galan Jr. and Richard Cantu. He was also found guilty on all counts of attempted murder.
Keetley, who has spent more than 12 years in jail, has maintained his innocence.
