DENVER—One of three teens charged with starting a house fire in suburban Denver that killed five people—apparently out of revenge for a stolen cellphone that was mistakenly traced to the residence—pleaded guilty Friday to one count of second-degree murder.
Gavin Seymour, 19, pleaded guilty for his role in the Aug. 5, 2020, fire that killed five members of a Senegalese family. Under a plea agreement, he faces between 16 and 40 years in prison when he is sentenced on March 15. The plea deal calls for another 60 other charges to be dismissed, The Denver Post reported.
