WASHINGTON -- After about six hours of deliberation, a jury returned a guilty verdict in the trial of a man accused of killing retired New York Times journalist David Rosenbaum.

Percey Jordan, 42, was convicted on all charges -- second- and first-degree murder, robbery, conspiracy to commit robbery, and five counts of credit card fraud -- in the death of the 63-year-old Rosenbaum.

"We obviously believe that justice has been served today," said Rosenbaum's brother Marcus outside the courthouse. "But I don't want anybody to think that this is a happy day. This is a real tragedy, not only for my brother and our family, but for Michael Hamlin and Percey Jordan and their families, and it's just a lot of wasted lives in this whole thing, and we feel bad about that."

Michael Hamlin, Jordan's cousin, testified against the defendant last week. Store security cameras showed Hamlin using Rosenbaum's credit card. He later pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and testified that it was Jordan who hit Rosenbaum twice in the head with a pipe before ripping his wallet from his hip pocket while Rosenbaum walked near his northwest Washington home last January.

Hamlin pleaded guilty to second-degree murder last month.

"It goes without saying that we believe justice was done today," said prosecutor Amanda Haines. "I know the family is very relieved. Obviously, it doesn't bring Mr. Rosenbaum back, but it's a step in their healing process, and I'm just thankful the jury did the right thing."

One juror who spoke to News4's Pat Collins said she couldn't say for sure if Jordan beat Rosenbaum to death, but she believes he was present during the attack.

The emergency response in the case featured delayed ambulance response, a misdiagnosis and further delays at the hospital. The city made changes since Rosenbaum's death, but his brother said more must be done.

"I think some good has come out of it, but I think there is a lot more to do, both with the fire department and the police department," Marcus Rosenbaum said. "I think there's a culture in the fire department and police department that has to change. I'm not sure I know exactly how to change it."

Sentencing for Jordan has been set for Jan. 12. The maximum punishment he faces is life without parole.
