FORT MYERS, Fla. -- A Lee County man has been convicted of killing his estranged wife and mother-in-law.
A jury deliberated for two hours Tuesday before finding 31-year-old Juan Mendez Jr. guilty of two counts of second-degree murder in the 2006 deaths of his wife, Whitney Mendez, and her mother, Lori Stone.
Prosecutors say Mendez stabbed both women to death at their Lehigh Acres home.
Mendez faces two life prison terms at his sentencing in February.
