A jury found a Tulsa man guilty of first-degree murder, kidnapping and other crimes Tuesday. George July was on trial for the beating death of Quinton Shaver.

During the crime investigation, Homicide Sergeant Dave Walker said July had been described as a "time bomb waiting to go off."

Walker said July ruled an environment that was like a cult and involved illegal drug use.

Along with the murder and kidnapping, the jury found July guilty of possession of a firearm, possession of methamphetamine and resisting an officer.

A co-defendant in the case, Angel Proctor, is set to go on trial for Shaver's murder in April.
