DAVENPORT, Iowa—An Iowa man was convicted Friday in the murder of a 10-year-old girl who was missing for eight months before her remains were found in a pond.
A judge found Henry Earl Dinkins, 51, guilty of first-degree murder and kidnapping in the death of Breasia Terrell, whose disappearance July 10, 2020, led to huge searches by dozens of volunteers and numerous law enforcement agencies. Fishermen found her body in March 2021 in a rural area north of Davenport.
