Burgettstown Man Pleads Guilty To Shooting His Dad

A Burgettstown man who shot his father and killed him during an argument pleaded guilty on Wednesday.  Twenty-four-year-old Joseph Warrick aced a criminal homicide charge and others but had his charges reduced to one charge of voluntary manslaughter. Warrick was sentenced to 4-8 years in state prison followed by 12 months of reentry supervision. The plea deal comes nearly two years after the July 3, 2020 incident where Warrick shot his father Joseph Warrick Sr. during an argument over a missing vape pen.
