CALIFORNIA — A South Pasadena man pleaded guilty today to murdering his young child in April.

At Tuesday’s court appearance, Aramazd Andressian Sr., 35, pleaded open to one count of first-degree murder.

The defendant is scheduled to be sentenced on Aug. 23.

Prosecutors believe the killing of 5-year-old Aramazd Andressian Jr. took place on or about April 21. The boy was last seen with his father, who was found unconscious the next day at a park in South Pasadena.

On June 23, Andressian Sr. was arrested in Las Vegas and extradited to Los Angeles County to face criminal prosecution for his son’s death. More than two months after the boy’s disappearance, his body was discovered in the Lake Cachuma area of Santa Barbara County.
