Marvin Jefferson Mitchell, the Berlin man who was shot by an Ocean City police officer as he was stabbing his estranged wife in a resort apartment in December, pleaded guilty last week to attempted first-degree murder.
Mitchell, 28, entered an Alford plea last Friday in Circuit Court in Snow Hill. In an Alford plea, the defendant does not admit guilt but concedes that there is enough evidence for a conviction. It is treated like a guilty plea.
On Dec. 20, 2010, Mitchell was shot by Ocean City Cpl. Rick Wawrzeniak after the officer came across Mitchell stabbing his estranged wife in an apartment on 82nd Street in front of the couple’s two young children. Mitchell survived the shooting, and was charged with attempted murder, burglary, assault and weapons charges. His wife survived.

Yep, Ocean City isn't the quaint family resort is it!
Never was since the built the bridge.
Officer Rick should have put the bullet into this guys head
Never was, just a cash cow. Families may come here but this town is not a family atmosphere.
