An Owen County Jury convicted a man for the the 2021 murder of Elizabeth Stevens.
Jay White, 36, of Spencer, was convicted Wednesday. Stevens' body was found by a passerby on Texas Pike, in the evening hours of September 14, 2021. An autopsy revealed she had died from a single gunshot wound to the head. Authorities say White shot Stevens while they were both inside a vehicle.
An investigation by the Owen County Sheriff's Office resulted in White's arrest seven days later at the Indianapolis International Airport.
Sentencing is scheduled for May 23.
