10:59Now PlayingThe grieving family of 21-year-old Kaylee Goncalves had to wait over a month before a suspect in her 2022 killing was arrested. Since then, they and the families of three other University of Idaho students killed at the same time have been forced to endure an agonizingly slow legal process, punctuated by delay after delay.
Now, a month before the suspect’s murder trial was finally set to begin, the families’ long wait for justice is poised to end in what one Goncalves family member calls a “shocking and cruel” plea deal – that removes the possibility of the death penalty.
“After more than two years, this is how it concludes — with a secretive deal and a hurried effort to close the case without any input from the victims’ families on the plea’s details,” the Goncalves family said in a statement shared with CNN. #CNN #News
