Man convicted of killing 'Curious George' co-author

A jury convicted Vincent Puglisi on Tuesday of killing Alan Shalleck, the writer and director of dozens of short episodes of the Disney TV show Curious George and co-writer (with original creator Margret Rey) of several Curious George books. Shalleck was killed in a murder/robbery in February 2006. Puglisi was convicted of first-degree murder and robbery with a deadly weapon, while his co-defendant, Rex Ditto, pleaded guilty to first-degree murder and robbery with a weapon in 2007 and was sentenced to life in prison.

Hopefully this news brings some closure to members of Mr. Shalleck's family....
