Edward Wayne Edwards has agreed to plead guilty in Summit County Court Friday to the 1977 murders of a Norton couple.
CHARDON, Ohio -- Edward Wayne Edwards tried to plead guilty Thursday to killing his foster son at their home in Burton in 1996.
The plea would have brought the number of victims to five he has been convicted of killing. But since Edwards is charged with a death penalty crime, the plea could not be accepted by Geauga County Common Pleas Judge Forrest Burt. It must be made before a three-judge panel or a jury, Prosecutor David Joyce said.
