Mobile County District Attorney Keith Blackwood announced today that Desiree Holiday has been convicted in the killing of Ja’Curtis Robinson and faces a range of 20 years to life in prison.

On August 11, 2026, a Mobile County jury returned a guilty verdict against Holiday following a trial before the Circuit Court of Mobile County.

Holiday is scheduled to be sentenced on September 30, 2026, at 9:00 a.m.
