Bill Thompson agree/negotiate to this plea bargain? What was his
reasoning? The electorate should demand and explanation from him for this
decision. Why is arson, a property crime, treated in a more punitive
manner than murder? And please, don’t parse words and legal
terminology about the difference between murder and manslaughter. Dead is
dead, and the actions of Silas Parks were deliberate and intentional as the
initial charge indicated. This is a sickening miscarriage of
justice and an embarrassment to Latah County.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
