Hernandez Govan, the man accused of orchestrating the death of Memphis rapper Young Dolph, has been found not guilty on all of his charges.
Govan faced charges of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit first-degree murder.
Before reading, Shelby County Criminal Court Judge Jennifer Mitchell warned members of the jury, as well as family members, to dismiss themselves if they expected an outburst of emotion. Govan embraced his defense as he wiped away tears, expressing relief after learning of his freedom.
Deliberations concluded at around 10:30 Wednesday morning. Jurors took nearly 2 hours and 47 minutes to deliberate on the verdict after more than two days of testimony and closing arguments on the third day. Govan did not take the stand in his defense.
"We have to respect a jury's decision even if we disagree with it," said Shelby County District Attorney Steve Mulroy at a press conference after the reading of the verdict.
