A homeless man who killed a 73-year-old Oceanside resident who offered the defendant a place to sleep was sentenced Wednesday to nearly 12 years in state prison.
Ian Spencer Dewey, 22, pleaded guilty last month to voluntary manslaughter in the death of Donald Ross and agreed to the 11-year, eight-month sentence.
Ross was found dead the morning of April 18 on the floor of his bedroom in his apartment on South Myers Street, according to Oceanside police. A cause of death was not disclosed.
