Wimp prosecutor?

[The Lurker Below]

This story is about a guy who beat another man to death, as people watched on. According to some eyewitnesses when other people tried to intervene the murderers friends held them back. After three months review the prosecutor finally charged the murderer with involuntary manslaughter. In our judicial system this will be plead out to aggravated assault - no time served, just probation, in order to save the courts and county money.

According to eyewitnesses the attack lasted nearly a full minute. The dead man was unconscious from the first hit. When you continue to beat on an unconscious man, to me, that's at least second degree murder. Then the system creates some degree of manslaughter plea. That actually means a few months time served behind bars. I'm calling our prosecutor a wimp for the poo charges he filed.

So my question is, what kind of sentencing would this crime bring in your jurisdiction?
