A man who got a new trial after being convicted in the death of his half brother in southwestern Michigan is awaiting sentencing after being convicted again.
The Herald-Palladium of St. Joseph reports a Van Buren County last week convicted 37-year-old Antonio Lewis of second-degree murder in the death of Ivory Shaver.
WSJM-AM reports sentencing is scheduled for June 13.
The state Supreme Court last year declined to take an appeal from prosecutors in Lewis' case. He had earlier been convicted of second-degree murder in the death of Shaver, whose body was found in a rural ditch in Van Buren County in 2012.
The appeals court overturned the conviction, saying Lewis' rights were violated when he wasn't allowed to represent himself after the trial started.
