, 26, was found guilty of first-degree murder with an enhancement for a hate crime for the killing of Blaze Bernstein.

A person is taken into custody for the murder of University of Pennsylvania student Blaze Bernstein in Orange County, California on January 12, 2018. Ken Morrison, Woodward's attorney, told jurors his client did not plan to kill anyone and did not hate Bernstein. He said Woodward faced challenges in his personal relationships due to a long-undiagnosed autism spectrum disorder and was confused about his sexuality after growing up in a politically conservative and devout Catholic family where his father openly criticized homosexuality.

Bernstein disappeared in January 2018 after he went out at night with Woodward to a park in Lake Forest, about 45 miles southeast of Los Angeles. After Bernstein missed a dentist appointment the next day, his parents found his glasses, wallet and credit cards in his bedroom and tried reaching him, but he did not respond to texts or calls.
