After mcconnells sister read a tear stained victim impact letter, the judge okayed a plea deal between the state and the defendant. Norberg admits to one count of aggravated manslaughter and could be out of prison in just over 17 years. Mcconnells family is disappointed. I dont think the judicial system failed. I just dont think it was harsh mur of enough for the vicious crime they did to my brother report roar mcconnell brothers and sisters will now seek to put an exclamation point on that norberg sentence. Within the next week or so theyll file a civil lawsuit for wrongful death against norberg seeking money damages. Norbergs criminal defense Attorney Says the mcconnells will likely get little money from his client because he has little to give. If it gives them some piece of mind they think theres basis for it, then i wouldnt fault them for doing that, but how does it turn out im not sure. Mcconnell brothers and sisters dont care about the dollar amount. Family Attorney Says its about making norbergs life after prison as hard as they can make it. The state had their opportunity to prosecute mr. Norberg criminally its the time to prosecute him civilly. Going after whatever money he may have . Thats what were going to do. You may have caught the victims brother gary mentioned the vicious crime they did to my brother. Norberg was actually one of four people charged in the killing.
