Former minor league baseball player Brandon Martin has been found guilty of three counts of first-degree murder.
On Thursday, the 27-year-old was convicted of killing his father, uncle and an alarm system installer with a baseball bat back in 2015 in Corona, California.
He reportedly attacked Michael Martin, Ricky Anderson and Barry Swanson after being released from a mental health facility where he was held for two days after choking and threatening his mother.

Martin was the Tampa Bay Rays first-round pick in the 2011 draft. Prosecutors plan to seek the death penalty against him.
