Prosecutors: No death penalty in killing of Redskins star

There's word out of Miami today that prosecutors won't seek the death penalty against four people charged in the killing of Washington Redskins star safety Sean Taylor, right.

The reason? The teen accused of being the shooter was a minor when the crime was committed. Eric Rivera, left, now 18, was 17 at the time he is accused of shooting Taylor in the professional football player's home.

Prosecutors say that the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that a person cannot be executed for a crime committed when they're under age 18. Others involved in the same case as a minor cannot face the death penalty if they were less involved in the commission of the crime, prosecutors said.
