A St. Joseph County jury has convicted Rya Barnes in a 2024 shooting that killed a South Bend mother and injured two other women.
Prosecutors say the violence erupted on Parry Street after an argument that began on social media.
Jasmine Swanson, 28, died at the scene from a gunshot wound to the head, while two others suffered non-life-threatening injuries.
Barnes denied firing a weapon, but investigators say video footage contradicted her story.
She was found guilty of murder, two counts of battery with a deadly weapon, and two counts of criminal recklessness.
Sentencing is scheduled for Jan. 16.
