19. What plea deal? Something less than life?

Not likely on 10 counts of first degree murder with separate federal hate crime charges.

What could he possibly offer as his side of the deal? Nothing to gain from him since he has no accomplice to turn against, has no grave site to reveal, no new info to give. His actions are on tape, twice, in local surveillance video and his own live streamed video.

Nothing to bargain with and nobody in a bargaining mood. He will get life without parole.

He can't claim insanity because his premeditation and long distance drive indicate that he was mentally competent enough to plan out each detail.
