Gangster pleads guilty to slaying in North End - Winnipeg Free Press: "Travis Arnold Personius, 23, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder Monday as the Crown dropped the more serious charge of first-degree murder. Personius faces a minimum penalty of life in prison with no parole for at least 10 years. He will be sentenced later this spring.
Two co-accused remain before the courts on the first-degree charge, which indicates the killing was planned. Tyson Kane Roulette, 25, and Lance Leon Myran, 34, are also charged with conspiracy to commit murder and are set to go on trial next year. Lawyers didn't say if there is a deal in place for Personius to testify against them.
Anthony Woodhouse, 29, was gunned down in September 2007 outside a Boyd Avenue home. Police began a lengthy investigation that ended in August 2009 with the arrests of the three accused, who are prominent members of the Indian Posse.
Prosecutor Carla Dewar said Monday Personius admitted to being the man who pulled the trigger. No other details were provided. Court records show all three suspects have lengthy legal histories, including convictions for assaults and weapons offences. They've been in and out of custody on a regular basis."
