Abstract

A Lincoln County Superior Court jury yesterday deliberated just 2 1/2 hours before finding Virgil Smith, 19, of Portland, guilty of arson and four counts of murder. Smith was acquitted of two counts of attempted murder. The charges stemmed from the December 3, 1992, fire at 215 Congress Street in Portland, in which four people died. The fire was the city's deadliest in 30 years. Details, related article. (Note: Daily coverage of trial from April 6 through April 14.)
