: Breaking Legal NewsCourt papers: Alaska man acknowledges killing 2
By (Breaking Legal News)
Court papers filed Tuesday indicate a 29-year-old Anchorage man has acknowledged that he killed his neighbor and another woman for whose murder he was acquitted.
The plea agreement is between federal prosecutors and Joshua Alan Wade, who is charged with the 2007 torture killing of his neighbor, Mindy Schloss.
In the filing, Wade also said he killed another Anchorage woman, Della Brown, in 2000. A jury acquitted Wade of that crime.
Prosecutors were seeking the death penalty in the Schloss killing, which would make it the first capital punishment case in Alaska since before statehood. But the plea agreement calls for a 99-year sentence without parole.
Wade is expected to change his plea Wednesday in federal court and be sentenced.
