CONWAY — Connor Macleod, the 25-year-old Conway man who was indicted on a second-degree murder count in the 2024 shooting death of the mother of his child, is taking a deal and pleading guilty to manslaughter, court records show.

According to the plea deal negotiated between his public defender and the state Attorney General's Office, he will serve between 10-26 years in prison. He may get a year taken off the minimum sentence for good behavior, if there are no disciplinary infractions within his first three years in prison.
