Navin Rejects Plea Deal In Murder Trial: Report

BRIDGEPORT, CT — Kyle Navin will head to trial after he rejected a plea deal in the case of the murder of his parents, reports the Hartford Courant. Navin had been offered a 60-year prison sentence with an ability to argue for less time for the murder of Jeffrey and Jeanette Navin.

Navin's girlfriend, Jennifer Valiante, plead guilty under the Alford Doctrine to charges of conspiracy to commit murder and hindering prosecution in November. Valiante's plea does not mean she admitted guilt, but that she could be found guilty of the case went to trial.
