TACOMA — Dominick Maldonado has been found guilty of kidnapping, assault and attempted second-degree murder in a November 2005 shooting rampage at the Tacoma Mall.
The Pierce County Superior Court jury found Maldonado, 22, guilty of attempted second-degree murder, four counts of first-degree kidnapping, six counts of first-degree assault, two counts of second-degree assault and two counts of first-degree unlawful possession of a firearm.
Seven people were injured and four others held hostage in the shooting.
Maldonado's lawyers said he was in the throes of a mental disorder and shouldn't have been held responsible. Prosecutors said he planned the attack for weeks and knew what he was doing.
