Second man pleads guilty in Port Huron stabbing case
A second man accused in a Port Huron stabbing incident has pleaded guilty to an assault charge.
Joshua Schreibman, 21, of Madison Heights, pleaded guilty to assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder, a 10-year felony.
Devin Convery, 21, of Port Huron, pleaded guilty to assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder and resisting/obstructing/assaulting a police officer on April 13.
The men were arrested after 37-year-old Steven Kelch was hospitalized with stab wounds Feb. 24.
Schreibman and Convery were briefly charged with open murder after Kelch was found dead at his Burtchville Township home after being released from the hospital.
Bond was revoked for two men accused of stabbing and killing a Burtchville Township man.
Joshua Schreibman, 21 of Madison Heights, and Devin Convery, 21, of Port Huron, appeared before St. Clair County District Court Judge John Monaghan Tuesday for a probable cause hearing.
St. Clair County Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Joshua Sparling said evidence suggests that Schreibman stabbed Steven Kelch, 37. Kelch was stabbed seven times, causing the wounds that would lead to his death, he said. All the evidence at this point does point to exactly that, that Mr. Schreibman held the knife that killed the victim in this case, Sparling said.
