Man Convicted of Double Murder

An Ohio man has been convicted of killing a Clarion University graduate and a retired Pennsylvania state trooper.

It took a jury less than six hours to return a guilty verdict against 44-year-old Calvin Neyland, who shot his victims August 8, 2007, at a Liberty Transportation Company facility in Perrysburg Township, Ohio.

Neyland killed 44-year-old Douglas Smith, who was the son of Douglas Smith Jr., a former vice president with Quaker State, and nurse Charlene Smith, who still live in the Oil City area. Neyland also killed 58-year-old Thomas Lazar of Belle Vernon, who was the corporate safety director for Liberty Transportation.

Prosecutors say Neyland killed the two men after learning that he was going to be fired for repeated violations and for falsifying his driving log.
