Man Enters Guilty Plea In Connection In 2015 Stabbing Death In Ventura County

A Ventura County man could spend nearly three decades in state prison after entering a guilty plea to a voluntary manslaughter charge for a fatal stabbing.

Prosecutors say George Malone Junior and Paul Blevins Junior had an argument at an Oxnard motel.  It ended with Malone stabbing and fatally injuring the Oxnard man with a kitchen knife.

Malone will be sentenced in January for the 2015 death.  He potentially faces a 29 year sentence.
