Two found guilty of offences after Sheffield murder of Kevin Pokuta
The couple are due to be sentenced early next year
Two people have been found guilty of offences connected to the murder of Kevin Pokuta, who was fatally shot in Sheffield in December 2023.
19 year old Kevin died from a single gunshot wound to the head after being mistakenly identified while parked on the road with his brother in the passenger seat.
The trial revealed how Ethan Hallows, 25 and of Oxford Street, was in another car traveling in convoy with Jake Brown, who fired the fatal shot.
Jake Brown had previously been convicted and sentenced to more than 30 years for murder in December 2024, alongside three other men and a teenage boy, for their involvement in the incident.
The jury also heard how Hallows fled the UK following the murder with the assistance of his girlfriend, 23-year-old Paris Askew.
He returned to the country in May 2025 to face legal proceedings.
Hallows was found guilty of murder, conspiracy to rob, firearms offences, and attempting to cause grievous bodily harm.
Askew, of Griffiths Road, was convicted of assisting an offender.
Both Hallows and Askew have been remanded into custody and will be sentenced at Sheffield Crown Court on January 23 2026.
