Erie County District Attorney John J. Flynn announces that 25-year-old Jairus J. Kedzierski of West Seneca was sentenced this afternoon before Erie County Court Judge Susan Eagan to 25 years to life in prison.
A jury found Kedzierski guilty of one count of Murder in the Second Degree (Class “A-I” felony). He was acquitted of the other count in the indictment against him. Jurors rendered their decision after approximately 10 hours of deliberation following a five-day trial in July 2023.
DA Flynn commends the West Seneca Police Department for their work in this investigation.
The case was prosecuted by Assistant District Attorney Ryan D. Haggerty of the Homicide Unit and Assistant District Attorney William Fitzgerald of the Felony Trials Bureau.
