Israel Lomeli, arrested last year for the 1998 slaying of a Phoenix teenager, has received probation and will be released from jail in March...

Prosecutors with the Maricopa County Attorney's Office initially filed a direct complaint against Lomeli on charges of second-degree murder and possession of methamphetamine. But a new plea deal was tailored in November following a grand jury indictment on the lesser charge of manslaughter...

Lomeli, while in the garage "during horseplay with friends and after partying [drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana], pointed a shotgun at his friend, Pete Cadriel... and the gun inadvertently went off, killing Pete," records state.
