Ah here we go, “marksville” works

A year-plus to go to trial, “murder and attempted murder” bargained down to “manslaughter”, like he hit the kid in his driveway instead of emptying his pistol, and the other cop isn’t even in the story any more. Must be nice.

Not a plea bargain, it was a jury verdict. Although it could have been what we lawyers call a "compromise verdict"-- 10 jurors want to convict of murder, 2 want to acquit, they all agree on manslaughter.

It is Marksville. It is Avoyelles Parish. Don’t go there.
