PART 1
PART 2
With her lover ready to betray her, confessed killer Toni Fratto agreed to a plea bargain with District Attorney Marc Torvinen that could see her out of prison in as little as ten years in exchange for her testimony against Kody Patten who is still facing a possible death sentence for the brutal killing of 16 year old Mickie Costanzo.

The announcement of the plea bargain came less than 24 hours after the High Desert Advocate published a story that Patten had at first accepted and then at the last minute changed his mind about a similar plea bargain that would have put him in the witness stand against Fratto.
According to informed sources the deal struck with Fratto’s attorneys John Springgate of Reno and David Lockie of Elko has the girl pleading guilty to second degree murder with a weapon enhancement in exchange for her testimony against Patten. According to state guidelines with good behavior and time served Toni Fratto could be paroled in less than 10 years.
Depending upon her testimony Patten, the boyfriend she has steadfastly supported until this week could wind up on death row for the march 3, 2011 murder of Costanzo.

I don’t want to see her possibly free in 10 years, but I’m glad she is getting a sentence!!! She is just as guilty as he is. I would rather see her get death along side her boyfriend. But at least she won’t be getting off with no sentence. See how well (as they put on Kody’s headline) she does as being labeled a “Snitch” or a “rat”, when she goes to prison.
Doesn’t hurt my feelings any!!!
remember that she is will have 2 sentences. one for the murder 2nd degree and one for the use of a deadly weapon, she will be in prison for a good 15-20 before she probably comes up for parole and when that day comes all of Micaela’s friends and family need to be there to voice that she needs to stay and not be paroled.
Thank heavens!
that little girl is sick crazy and evil i hope to god shes not out in 10…. i know its not very nice of me but i hope she gets whats comming to her in prison….. i hope she never comes home just like Miceala wont….
@Former Resident,
I think this is what makes the American Court system corrupt. They want it to go smooth and they want a confession. It makes them look more suitable for cases to come and it keeps the media off of their back. They’re willing to sacrifice true justice for theyre own selfish gain and if that means cutting one murderer a deal to gain evidence on another they will. They did it, there’s no doubt about it. So why do they need more evidence? Why do they need to cut deals? Kody and Toni were friends, but they deserve the death penalty. I don’t agree with Lethal Injection. I can buy a rope for less than the chemicals, or even a gun and ammo. But Its “Inhuman”. America needs to wake up.
