He's been charged with capital homicide, so he's facing the death penalty. He gave what appears to be a very incriminating confession, so unless there's some reason it can't come into evidence, I'd say a conviction is very likely; I'd even guess it's likely without the confession. This is in Texas, a place not at all shy about imposing and carrying out death sentences. Under all the circumstances, I'd be amazed if the prosecutor would agree to any plea deal that involved anything less than life in prison, and even that would surprise me.
So why don't you think he'll get the punishment he deserves?
