Three of the men charged with murder in the death of D’Vontaye Mitchell, who was pinned face down on the ground outside a Milwaukee hotel last year, are seeking plea deals in the case.
A prosecutor from the Milwaukee County District Attorney's Office was in court Tuesday requesting that a judge set plea dates on behalf of Devin W. Johnson-Carson, Brandon LaDaniel Turner and Herbert T. Williamson.
"The parties have been in negotiations for the last few weeks, and I think we have a resolution," Daniel Flaherty, an assistant district attorney, said in court.
All three men were charged with felony murder in August.
