SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (WCIA) — A Springfield man has been found guilty of several crimes committed in a 2018 home invasion that escalated into a murder.

A jury in Sangamon County convicted 26-year-old Danye Woods this week on charges of home invasion, armed robbery, theft and first-degree murder. Testimony presented during a three-day trial showed that in February of 2018, Woods and others planned an armed robbery against 19-year-old Dohndre Hughes.

On Feb. 23, 2018, Woods and another man broke into Hughes’ home on East Jackson Street near McCreery Avenue through the back door. Once inside, they yelled “Police!”, and ordered Hughes and another person to the ground. When Hughes did not comply, Woods stabbed him in the chest, killing him.

Woods and his accomplice stole money from the home and then fled. He and two others were charged in March 2018.

“The jury’s verdict in this case should serve as a reminder that if you engage in dangerous, violent behavior in our community, you will be held accountable for the deadly consequences of your actions,” Sangamon County State’s Attorney John Milhiser said in a news release. “Our thoughts and prayers are with the family of Dohndre Hughes, who this week had to sit through a trial and listen to the tragic details of the end of Dohndre’s life.”

Milhiser also thanked for Springfield Police Department for their help in solving the case.

Wood’s sentencing is scheduled for Aug. 2, and he faces 20 to 60 years in prison. He will stay in Sangamon County Jail until he is sentenced.
