Trone's co-defendant, Tremont Jones, was also convicted on two counts of robbery and one count of conspiracy.
Prosecutors claimed Jones tipped Trone off to PnB's presence at the restaurant ... where Rock and his girl sat down -- Rock wearing $500,000 worth of bling ... which was taken off his dead body after the shooting.
