COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO. -- The man accused of killing a homeless man last May pleaded guilty to murder, according to the 4th Judicial District Attorney.

As part of a plea agreement, James Henry Bratt pleaded guilty to the Attempted 1st Degree Murder of James Bidgood. Bratt is set to be sentenced on April 1.

It was last May when police said the body of Bidgood was found near the intersection of Mt. Washington Avenue and St. Elmo Avenue. Bidgood was described as a local transient.

According to the coroner, Bidgood had been stabbed to death.

After a domestic disturbance led police to a knife hidden inside a bucket filled with concrete, police said a woman at the home told them she believed her husband, James Bratt, was involved in the death of Bidgood.

The woman, according to police, said Bratt came home one day "very excited" and scrubbed his hands and a folding knife. She also said Bratt confessed to her that he had gone to a field tro drink when he stabbed Bidgood five times in the chest and two times in the neck.

Bidgood, according to a warrant, hid the knife in a five-gallon bucket that he filled with cement and a plastic tree.
