29 years is a stiff sentence if in fact this guy was just along for the ride on a supposed burglary, but it all depends on if he is eligible for parole. I'm guessing that he will be eligible for parole because this is a plea agreement and he will be testifying for the prosecution. That could cut the sentence at least in half. He was basically the least guilty of the bunch so they give him a deal that allows him to get out in his thirties and have a life. Who knows if this guy deserves any kind of break, but this obviously helps ensure that the shooter receives the harshest possible sentence.
