CNN Don Lemon Tonight January 8, 2022 04:36:00

walked freely for weeks after this murder and even told by the prosecutor at the time they were protected by the citizen's arrest law and they did not demonstrate remorse over that period of time in actually their own words expressed at the scene of the crime, what they thought. so i think there is an important moment for remorse to be expressed at sentencing but in this case the judge given the wholistic content saw that as too little too late given what happened in the direct aftermath. >> you were surprised, michael, the family declined the plea deal to put them in prison for an additional 30 years, why? >> in federal prison there is no parole so you would have talked about a life sentence for any one of these individuals. so let's take the men that are in there their 6 0s, at 90 years old, the chances they're alive at that time is slim to none in cus custody. so it would have amounted to a life sentence and also would have removed the possibility of any appeal.
