21-year old Larry Whitfield was found not guilty of murder Friday in the death of Mary Parnell last year. Jurors did find him guilty, however, of causing her death by kidnapping, and that carries an automatic life sentence.

According to prosecutors for the case, Whitfield was looking for a place to hide after a robbery and broke into Parnell's home causing her to have a heart attack. While he never touched the grandmother, he did cause the heart trauma and never called for help.

Damn shame. See why crime doesn't pay?!
