Rochester, N.Y. (WHAM) - Rochester, N.Y. (WHAM) - The jury had just announced part of the verdict when the courtroom had to be cleared in the University of Rochester kidnapping trial. Inallia Rolldan was found guilty on all five charges she faced, including kidnapping and weapons possession, when she collapsed and began hyperventilating.





"It was very stressful," said Frank Ciardi after the proceedings. The jury had a mixed verdict for his client. David Alvarez-Ubiles was convicted of kidnapping and weapons charges, but was acquitted of assault charges. "I think what came out very clearly is my client did not assault or torture or harm anyone," he told 13WHAM's Jane Flasch.

The fourth defendant, Ruth Lora, was found guilty of kidnapping and weapons charges. She cried softly as the verdict was read as did her mother who has attended the trial most days.



Two UR football players were kidnapped, tortured and sexually assaulted at a drug house on Harvest Street last December. Jurors saw some of the crime for themselves because one of the captors recorded parts on a cell phone. "Some evidence was obviously more difficult than others to look, at particularly the video that occurred in the bathroom," said prosecutor Matthew Schwartz. "But (the jurors) did just that. They did their job."

The jury heard three weeks of testimony and deliberated just eight hours over two days. "It appeared from the notes that they were sending out (during deliberations) that they went through the evidence and charges in a methodical way," said Schwartz.

Nine defendants were arrested; . Some of them will be sentenced later this week.

Rolldan was given medical attention, then taken away to the Monroe County Jail with the others.



It came out in the trial that the motive for the entire incident was revenge for a drug dealer who had been and robbed two weeks earlier. Sometime during the 40 hours of captivity, those involved realized they had the wrong men, but refused to let them go.

Dozens of people came and went from the house and no one called police. "It's very sad. A lot of it probably could have been avoided or minimized if someone had called police," said Schwartz.
