Hutch's murder: Both suspects convicted in murder of Oak Park jeweler

After closing arguments that lasted an entire day, jurors have finished deliberating in the trial against two men charged in the murder of jeweler Dan ‘Hutch’ Hutchinson.

Marco Bisbikis and Roy Larry are both on trial for the 2022 murder of Hutchinson, who was well-known for his store, Hutch's Jewelry, in Oak Park.

The trial started last week and wrapped late Wednesday afternoon after several hours of closing arguments. The jury began deliberating Thursday morning and reached a verdict shortly after 11 a.m.

Both suspects were convicted of first-degree murder, conspiracy to commit murder, assault to commit murder, and felony firearm.

His attorney, Bisbikis, is accused of writing himself into Hutchinson's will and then plotting the murder with several other men. Roy Larry is accused of pulling the trigger.

Hutch's murder-for-hire trial: Closing arguments wrap, case goes to jury Thursday

The trial of the suspects charged in the murder of Dan Hutchinson is over and will head to the jury on Thursday.

During testimony, Hutchinson's wife Marisa was called to the stand to describe the couple's business and their relationship with Bisbikis. She said they would not report all cash sales over $10,000 to the IRS and instead would give that money to Bisbikis to handle for them. She also described a casual business relationship with the attorney, one where Bisbikis was paid in cash and receipts were just numbers jotted on scraps of paper.

"He didn't actually do it, but he helped do it and that makes him just as guilty," Oakland County Assistant Prosecutor John Skrzynski said of Bisbikis.

Dan ‘Hutch’ Hutchinson's wife took the stand during her late husband's murder trial Friday to testify about the couple's relationship with the lawyer accused of plotting his killing.

During the trial, the man who allegedly did commit the killing took the stand in his own defense. Roy Larry repeatedly denied being the shooter, said he wasn't the man pictured committing the shooting, and at times became argumentative.

"I never changed my story - I never lied to them not one time," Roy Larry said.

In addition to Bisbikis and Roy Larry, three other men, Darnell Larry, Raptoplous, and Philip Sumpter were charged in connection with the murder.

Darnell Larry and Raptoplous both accepted plea deals and agreed to testify against Bisbikis and Roy Larry.
