GUILTY WA - Three people dead, 3 injured in Skyway shooting, 20 July 2006

Last Thursday, just south of the city limits, five young people were asked to leave a bowling alley and casino because two were underage. As they left, they argued with people who had been smoking outside a nearby home, police said. They pulled their car into the driveway to continue the argument, and two men at the home — Dimitri Sidorchuk, 23, and William Shane Belk — fired dozens of shots into the vehicle, court documents said. Of the five unarmed people in the car, two were killed and three injured.

One of Sidorchuk's stray bullets struck Belk, who also died. Sheriff's deputies said they later found a marijuana-growing operation at the home. Sidorchuk was charged Tuesday with two counts of second-degree murder, one of first-degree manslaughter and three counts of first-degree assault.

A man who once faced more than eight decades in prison for shooting three people to death and seriously injuring three more, will walk free Friday after spending a year and a half in jail.

Dimitri Sidorchuk, 24, kept his head bowed and declined to speak in a King County courtroom, where he was sentenced Thursday for second-degree manslaughter and third-degree assault...

[T]wo juries in two separate trials -- considering arguments that Sidorchuk had acted in self-defense -- were unable to come to a verdict, and last month prosecutors agreed to a plea bargain on much-reduced charges.
