West Chester, PA – Mamadou Kallie has been convicted by a jury on multiple charges, including three counts of First-Degree Murder. The conviction was announced by the Chester County District Attorney’s Office. Kallie’s sentencing will be determined at a later date with a minimum sentence of life imprisonment.

The trial, lasting six days, presented evidence and testimony indicating that Kallie murdered his girlfriend, Tiara Rodriguez-Diaz, on May 29, 2022, in the presence of their one-year-old son. Additionally, he killed Kimberly Ortiz-Zayas, who was carrying his unborn child, through multiple gunshots.
