Carillo Dean, a former Prince William County park ranger who last year shot his 45-year-old wife, Elizabeth Dean, her 13-year-old son, Connor, and 14-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, plead guilty Tuesday to three charges of capital murder in connection to the Feb. 2009 slayings.

Dean will not receive the death penalty in the case as part of a plea deal, which has surviving members of the family – including Kevin Kirk, the father of the slain children and Elizabeth’s former husband – upset with prosecutors.
