Depends on how guilty he actually believes he is. As it stands if he's convicted his life is pretty much over from any kind of standpoint, so he has to take that into consideration.
Even if he pleads to a lesser deal its still a felony, and to me it just sounds like thier are some pretty big holes in the case especially for a second degree murder charge.
