PITTSBURGH (AP) – A Western Pennsylvania man has pleaded guilty to third-degree murder in the death of a Pittsburgh-area community activist.
Prosecutors in Allegheny County said 22-year-old Londele Cox pleaded guilty Monday as part of a plea agreement under which the district attorney’s office will recommend a sentence of 15 to 30 years.
He was charged in the January 2013 homicide of 61-year-old Isaiah Dent, a McKees Rocks activist found stabbed and beaten in his apartment.
Prosecutors originally arrested another man in the slaying before releasing him and charging Dent.
