Other mistake: The plea deal with Danny (5 to 7 years in prison) seems inconsistent with Georgia's sentencing guidelines, recidivist law, and the State's reputation as being tough on repeat offenders. Danny was on parole, which means he was convicted of a felony. His new charges - including assaulting a police officer (an "aggravating circumstance") and possession with intent to deliver - could be enough to impose MAXIMUM sentences or mandatory minimums (10 years?) under sentencing enhancements.
Plot hole: The prosecuting attorney told William "this case [murder of Kat] is so paper thin the judge's probably gonna throw it out" but William could try to convince the D.A. to take it to trial. In addition to circumstantial evidence against Danny and his pending charges (resisting arrest, assault on a police officer, possession with intent to deliver, and parole violations), the random, unprovoked, senseless murder of a teenaged girl would be high profile - such cases are most likely to be prosecuted.
