A 28-year-old Kentucky man was found guilty of murder in the death of his 25-year-old girlfriend, according to reports.

Officials said Dillon Brewster was convicted Friday in the 2022 murder of Kameryn Recchia. Recchia was Brewster’s girlfriend at the time.

Dillon Brewster was convicted on multiple charges, including murder, kidnapping and firearm possession.

The conviction comes after Brewster’s arrest on Oct. 20, 2021, when he led Ohio State Highway Patrol on a high-speed pursuit for more than 7 miles. The police chase ended when troopers used stop sticks on Brewster’s vehicle near Troy, Ohio. Police then discovered his girlfriend’s 3-year-old child was in the car along with her belongings.

When OSHP asked Kenton County police to contact Brewster’s girlfriend, Kameryn Recchia, there was no response at her Morning View residence. The 3-year-old child was given to Recchia’s stepfather and mother who wanted to check the residence again because they were concerned for her safety.

Recchia’s stepfather entered through a window of her double-wide home, unlocked the door for police and officers found Recchia’s dead body in the kitchen. She had been shot twice in the head.

Sanders said it was determined that Recchia was shot with a .22, and a .22 rifle with ammunition was found on the backseat floor of Brewster’s vehicle after the pursuit. Sanders also said analysis from the KY State Police Crime Lab found that the shell casings at the crime scene matched the rifle, as well.

Authorities said the 3-year-old child was in the home when Recchia was shot and killed.

Officials said Brewster was also convicted on charges of kidnapping and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
