GUILTY OH - Bernard Williamson, 18, stabbed to death, Warren, 29 April 1979

"
An Ohio murder suspect who reportedly hid out in Arizona for 30 years under an assumed name has been indicted by a grand jury and is awaiting extradition back to Ohio to face trial.
Ronald E. Stahlman, 56, was apprehended on a murder warrant at his Payson home on Ash Street Dec. 8 by U.S. Marshals with the help of Gila County Narcotics Task Force officers for allegedly stabbing 18-year-old Bernard Williamson to death in Warren, Ohio back in April 1979."

Ronald Stahlman stood before Judge Andrew Logan and the family of Bernard Williamson and admitted he was there the night Williamson died of nine stab wounds but said Williamson’s death was “beyond my control”...

Stahlman, 56, pleaded guilty Wednesday morning to involuntary manslaughter and was sentenced to one to 10 years in prison...

Becker said the case against Stahlman was circumstantial because not one witness could place a knife in the hands of any of the three men involved in the early-morning fight that resulted from a minor traffic accident.
