A Connecticut man was found guilty of multiple offenses stemming from an assault on three brothers in 2020 in Bridgeport.
A Superior Court jury in Bridgeport recently convicted Danilo Valle, 25, of two counts of first-degree assault and three counts of reckless endangerment, according to a release from the Connecticut Division of Criminal Justice.
The jury, which consisted of four men and two women, deliberated for one day before returning the verdicts, the DCJ said.
Valle was charged in connection with a stabbing on Lexington Avenue in Bridgeport on Oct. 24, 2020 that left three brothers injured, one of which was hospitalized for three days.
“This office is committed to protecting the citizens of Bridgeport from devastating physical violence,” Bridgeport State’s Attorney Joseph T. Corradino said in the release.
“The jury treated this case with great respect. I trusted that they would return a fair verdict,” said Senior Assistant State’s Attorney Justina Moore, who tried the case for the state. “They worked conscientiously to return verdicts based on the law and the evidence.”
Corradino thanked Moore as well as Inspector Martin Heanue, former Bridgeport Police Department Detective Alex Miccoli and Paralegal Specialist Iris Villanueva for “bringing the case to a successful conclusion.”
“Our staff is firmly dedicated to securing justice for victims of violent crimes,” Corradino said.
Valle faces up to 43 years in prison during sentencing, which Judge Kevin C. Doyle has scheduled for April 27 in Superior Court in Bridgeport.
