PITTSBURGH (AP) – A former handyman has pleaded guilty to third-degree murder in the death of a western Pennsylvania woman who went missing three years ago. Fifty-year-old Douglas Berry of McKeesport also pleaded guilty to burglary and other charges Monday as part of an agreement with Allegheny County prosecutors. Prosecutors agreed to recommend a sentence of 17 to 40 years in state prison. Sixty-seven-year-old Elizabeth Wiesenfeld was reported missing to Whitehall police in April 2019. Remains later identified as hers were found nearly a year later. Authorities said Wiesenfeld had told her family she was afraid of Berry. The Tribune-Review reports that he apologized in court and said he had “learned to pray for forgiveness.”
