Man found guilty of murdering Adrian Peterson’s son
Joseph Patterson has been convicted of murdering the 2-year-old son of Adrian Peterson two years ago.
Patterson was standing trial for the murder of Tyrese Ruffin committed in Oct. 2013 and was found guilty on all counts. The charges included second-degree murder, first degree manslaughter and aggravated battery against a person under the age of three, the Argus Leader reports.
Patterson is awaiting sentencing and could spend the rest of his life in prison. His loved ones apparently took the news in a tough way.
