Mob beating suspect ^ Bruce Wimbush (now 18) took a plea deal. His charges were lowered to assault with intent to do great bodily harm, which reduces his maximum penalty from life in prison down to 10 years in prison. Today, he pleaded guilty in Detroit court.
In exchange for the reduced charges and guilty plea, Wimbush has agreed to testify against the other three adult suspects (pictured below).
