Before the trial got underway, Mick's attorney, Dennis Adkins, proposed a deal to drop the murder charge for a straight 10-year sentence. The prosecutor declined and instead made a counteroffer. If Mick would plead guilty to involuntary manslaughter, which would carry a sentence of 10 to 15 years, the prosecutor's office wouldn't oppose his release when he was eligible for parole in eight years.
