A man is heading to prison for killing his roommate at a state mental health facility.

Investigators say Carlson strangled the man in their room at the Almost Home Again facility in Gilman, Carlson told investigators that he was hearing voices, and does not remember what happened. He pleaded guilty to first degree homicide charges earlier this year.
