Mark Laurila's convictions for Attempted Murder in the First Degree and Felony Harassment were affirmed by the Washington State Court of Appeals on May 6, 2026. The court entered a mandate terminating further review of the case on that date. The Court of Appeals' decision means Laurila's convictions will stand without further legal challenge. Cowlitz County Superior Court previously handled the case, which was initially tried before a jury.
