Jurors to decide whether fatal Mandan stabbing was murder May 11, 2021 FacebookTwitterEmail BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — A jury in Burleigh County will decide if a Moffit man charged in a fatal stabbing committed murder or was acting in self-defense. Forty-eight-year-old Arthur Funk is charged in the June 2020 death of 53-year-old Kevin Stockert, of Mandan. According to the prosecution, the two men fought when Funk, who had been staying with Stockert's girlfriend, failed to return her car. Assistant Burleigh County State’s Attorney Chase Lingle said in his opening statement to jurors Monday that Stockert was stabbed numerous times, suffered a broken rib and was left to die with Funk making no attempt to call for medical help, the Bismarck Tribune reported.
