Rhode Island Criminal Lawyer

Of the five men accused of murdering a father of six in West Belfast, Ireland, one of them has pleaded guilty to manslaughter but not guilty to murder. All five men were accused of stabbing the man to death outside his home in February of 2006. The other four are still facing murder charges.

The prosecution for the case has been given time to consider the plea, and is expected back in court on Wednesday.
