Statement from D.A. Bragg on the Trial Conviction of Joseph Morros


July 29, 2026

Yesterday, Joseph Morros was convicted on all counts at trial for the murder of 30-year-old Tykeem Berry at an Inwood bodega in December 2022. Here is the statement from D.A. Bragg:

“A jury has found Joseph Morros guilty of viciously and callously taking Tykeem Berry’s life in an intentional act of gun violence,” said District Attorney Bragg. “Instead of walking away, Joseph Morros robbed Mr. Berry’s family of a beloved father, son and friend. What is particularly heartbreaking about this incident is Mr. Berry’s young daughter witnessed his murder – a horrific trauma no child should ever have to endure. I thank the jury for their careful and thoughtful consideration of the evidence that led to this verdict.”
