Then he would have to think about what he did every single day for the rest of his life.

I don't know of any state that considers manslaughter (which is probably the max you could get him for) a capital crime. This was definitely not a premeditated murder. The worst he could probably get is life w/out parole. I'm betting that he gets parole though.
