A Pittsburgh-area man has been arrested for allegedly trying to get his ten-year-old stepson to kill a four-year-old half-brother. Police say Donald Winniewicz (WIN'-oh-wich) has confessed to playing an audiotape to the sleeping ten-year-old. His wife found the tape in a file drawer and played it. Court documents state Nancy Winniewicz heard her husband's voice telling the older child to strangle the preschooler -- or smother him with a pillow. She made a copy and contacted police. Authorities say the mother told officers the older boy had previously told her he'd heard voices in his sleep.Posted by stupefied
