A Michigan man charged with killing six strangers between picking up rides for Uber pleaded guilty to murder on Monday, just before attorneys were set to interview jurors for his trial. Dalton pleaded guilty to murder and attempted murder over his attorney’s objections, triggering a mandatory sentence of life in prison with no chance for parole on Feb. 5. “Yes, I’ve wanted this for quite a while,” Dalton replied when a judge asked if the pleas were voluntary. Rich Smith and his 17-year-old son, Tyler Smith, were fatally shot while looking at a pickup truck in a dealer’s lot. She was dating Tyler Smith and was in a vehicle when he and his father were shot while looking at pickup trucks.
