Jerry Leveille entered the guilty plea yesterday afternoon, on third day of his preliminary hearing for second-degree murder; he will be sentenced in October
A Sault Ste. Marie man, charged with murder in the shooting death of a woman two years ago, has pleaded guilty to manslaughter.
His plea to the lesser offence of manslaughter was accepted by the Crown and followed discussions throughout the day between the defence and prosecution. The investigation revealed the accused had been there at what one resident described as a "sh--hole," a rooming house, with 10 one-room units, all of which had steel doors, and squatters in some areas.
