   > McGann and Smith initially were charged with first-degree murder. McGann on April 10, 1996, accepted a plea deal for a lesser charge, voluntary manslaughter, and a five-year prison sentence.

   > Smith was offered the same deal, but his court-appointed attorney advised him to turn it down and go to trial, reasoning that it was McGann who fired the fatal shots.

   Dude lost 24yrs of his life because his public defender was incompetent.

   Edit: Happy he got out and is able to attempt a relationship with his son.
