A San Diego jury convicted a man Friday of second-degree murder in the killing of Connie Dakhah.

Parrish Chambers Jr. broke into Dakhah's Rancho Peñasquitos condo in June of 2022 and beat her to death. The case made national headlines after an NBC 7 investigation revealed that it took San Diego police about an hour and 45 minutes to arrive after the first of at least 10 calls to 911.

Once they arrived, officers observed smashed glass from a busted sliding door but decided not to force their way inside to see if Dakhah was OK. During their only interview about their response that night, San Diego police told NBC 7 that officers didn’t check on her because they believed her alleged attacker lived with her and broke into his own home.
