UPDATED: Murder Suspect To Testify Against Co-Defendant. A Summersville man who allegedly conspired with his girlfriend to murder her parents pled guilty Friday, according to Texas County Prosecutor Michael Anderson.
The basic version goes like this: Two criminals are arrested, but police can't convict either on the primary charge, so they plan to sentence them to a year in jail on a lesser charge. Each of the prisoners, who can't communicate with each other, are given the option of testifying against their partner. If they testify, and their partner remains silent, the partner gets three years and they go free. If they both testify, both get two.
