As part of the agreement, Patton, now 18, pleaded guilty to two counts of battery, criminal recklessness, criminal gang activity and carrying a handgun without a license.
The state agreed to drop a sentencing enhancement on the criminal gang activity charge.
The plea deal dictated that the judge could sentence Patton to no more than 10 years in prison. He already has served one year in the Marion County Jail.
Disgusting. State attorney needs to be removed...with prejudice. He/She/It isn't looking out for the interests of the people or the law.
Patton was 17 when he was arrested in July 2010 on 14 adult charges connected to the shootings of nine people, all between the ages of 10 and 19.
Yeah...just disgusting.
