Marine Corps Veteran With TBI Convicted in Pennsylvania Murder Trial Over Roommate's Death

A U.S. Marine Corps veteran has been convicted in Pennsylvania for the fatal shooting of his roommate, after a jury deliberated for about two hours. Christopher Euard, 54, was found guilty of homicide and assault charges in connection with the June 2025 death of Timothy Pirraglia in Sandy Township, Clearfield County. Prosecutors said the argument between the roommates turned deadly over their living arrangements, and investigators found Pirraglia on the kitchen floor with a single bullet wound to his chest. Clearfield County Coroner Kim Shaffer-Snyder pronounced him dead after Euard called 911 hours later. Euard’s defense argued self-defense, and the family said Euard has traumatic brain injury and epilepsy linked to military service.
