Las Vegas teenagers plead guilty to killing classmate

Four Las Vegas teenagers who beat their high school classmate to death have escaped a lengthy sentence for murder after striking a plea deal.
 
Jonathan Lewis Jr., 17, died in hospital days after he was stomped, kicked and punched unconscious in an alleyway last November.
 
His killers, aged 16 and 17 at the time of the attack, were to be tried for second-degree murder in adult court, but admitted manslaughter in a plea deal that will see them spend an unspecified period in juvenile detention.
