After almost pulling an all-nighter, a Tulsa jury returns early this morning with a guilty verdict in the Robert Yerton trial.

former Tulsa school administrator was found guilty of three-of-the-five counts of molestation filed against him. The jury reached its verdict around two this morning.  The jury recommends nearly 30-years in prison.

As the verdict was being read, Yerton collapsed and was rushed to the hospital.
