As for the firearms charges I am very interested to see what he pleads to and what his sentence is....obviously LE didn't think their case would hold up in court or they never would have pled out...only a few more days till we at least have answers on that.
I don't think a plea offering would be due to thinking they have nothing to hold up in court, I think it is standard practice in order to save the cost of a lengthy jury trial.
"If you plead guilty to one charge, we'll drop the other."
They also may know that they have enough evidence coming in from the crime lab to charge him with murdering Rachael and that he will be in prison for a long time and concluded it would be very inconvenient to have him on trial for two different matters at the same time.
