A
man has been convicted of murdering his own son, who was stabbed to
death when he intervened in a row between his father and mother over
rent money.

was convicted by an Old Bailey jury of murdering Paul at the address
on October 7, last year and will be sentenced at a later date.
Police
had been called at approximately 10.00pm and Paul was pronounced dead
at the scene.
A
post-mortem examination took place within twelve hours on at
Whittington Hospital and the Icause of death was confirmed as an
incise wound to the neck.
The
defendant was arrested at the scene on suspicion of murder and
subsequently charged.
The
court heard Paul Joseph intervened in an argument between his mother
and father regarding rent.
His
father then argued and a fight escalated and ended with George Joseph
stabbing his son in the neck with a kitchen knife.
