Longview man convicted of aggravated murder

KELSO, Wash. (AP) - A 22-year-old Longview man is facing life in prison without parole when he is sentenced July 8 for killing another man during a robbery.

A Cowlitz County Superior Court jury convicted Taylor Tom Conley on Wednesday of aggravated murder in the shotgun slaying of Brian Swehla. The 42-year-old man was killed in March 2006 at his Longview home.

Another man, Ronnie Weller-Childers, previously pleaded guilty to second-degree murder for his part in the killing.
