DEALS IN A FATAL SHOOTING

Two men have taken plea deals for the shooting death of another man in east Bakersfield in 2000.

Steven Molina pleaded no contest to involuntary manslaughter while David McGuire admitted to being an accessory in the attack on Henry Gibson on Clifton and Wilkins streets. An earlier trial against the men had been thrown out due to witness prejudice before being reinstated by an appellate court.

Sentencing is February 15th.
