The suspects guilty pleas
precluded what could have
been a long and complicat-
ed trial that was set to start
Monday, when the four men
instead chose to accept a
plea deal.
Here are their charges
and penalties:
James, 24, who fired the
fatal shot, pleaded guilty to
voluntary manslaughter,
three counts of aggravated
assault, two counts of third-
degree cruelty to children
and one count each of using
a firearm to commit a felo-
ny, being a convicted felon
with a gun, and trying to
possess drugs within 1,000
feet of a public housing
complex.
James was convicted of
burglary on Feb. 5, 2010,
according to court records.

She alleged Powell was a
gang leader who would
reconnect with his contacts
if released from jail.
On each suspects mur-
der charge, Rumer set a
bond of $1 million. He
added $10,000 for Powell,
who at the time of Dicks
homicide was on probation
for drug charges.
Dicks death came two
days before he was sched-
uled to appear in Muscogee
County Superior Court on
drug-related charges.
He and three co-defen-
dants, including his father,
Demonde Donya Dicks Sr.,
were set for a hearing be-
fore Judge Frank Jordan Jr.
