A year and half after 16 year old Chassidy Broadstone lost her life in an arson a second suspect has pleaded guilty. Brenden Daviduk, 30, signed a plea deal where he faces a minimum of 32 years in prison. Broadstone's father, Roger, said their family is relieved.

"We talked about it a lot and we're pretty satisfied with it, you know, 32 years is a long time to come up for parole," Roger Broadstone said.

Now the death penalty's off the table and there's no guarantee Daviduk will be granted parole after 32 years.

"It is a life sentence and it's a very long time before he's even eligible for parole," Prosecutor Chris Becker said. "Parole eligibility doesn't mean they get out," he said.

When Judge Sean O'Brien asked Daviduk why he changed his mind, Daviduk said he was ready to get it over with.

Roger, referring to his daughter affectionately as "chunk," got emotional as his family moves one step closer to justice.

"It's definitely justice for Chunk and her schoolmates and classmates will all be proud," Roger said. "She graudated this year," he said through tears.

Daviduk faces charges of aggravated murder, aggravated arson, aggravated burglary and tampering with evidence.

Daviduk's sentencing is deferred until the trial of his codefendants is completed.

One of those defendants is Zackary Gurd, who has already pled guilty and the other Patricia Zarlingo, has a trial is set for July.
