Pennsylvania man found guilty of murdering parents, twin brother

By Elizabeth Daley PITTSBURGH (Reuters) - A Pennsylvania man has been found guilty but mentally ill in the sword-stabbing murders of his parents and twin brother, his lawyer's office said on Thursday. Joseph McAndrew Jr., 27, was convicted on Wednesday by Judge Gary Silow in Montgomery County Court of the March 2011 slayings after a seven-day trial. McAndrew was found guilty of killing his twin brother, James McAndrew, and his parents, Susan and Joseph McAndrew Sr., in the Philadelphia suburb of Gulph Mills, according to the office of his defense attorney, Paul Bauer. A tenant of the family called 911, Assistant District Attorney Kevin Steele said, and McAndrew was arrested outside their home while trying to flee and told police that his family members were away when they lay dead inside.
