Thompson pleaded guilty to two amended charges:

• Second Degree Murder to Voluntary Manslaughter
• Maliciously Shooting in an Occupied Building to Unlawfully Shooting in an Occupied Building encompassed in the same code section

Officials say he also pleaded guilty to a felony charge of Child Abuse.

According to officials, the Commonwealth moved to nolle prosequi the following:

• Felony Use of a Firearm during the commission of a felony as the charge could no longer be proceeded under due to the amendment of the charges
• Misdemeanor Reckless Handling of a Firearm
• Misdemeanor Willful Discharge of a Firearm in the City
• Misdemeanor Brandishing a Firearm

Officials say the amendment of the charges was due to a change in their eyewitness testimony and that Colden’s family was consulted and accepted the plea agreement to the charges.

There is no agreement as to sentence.

Sentencing is set for May 21, 2025, at 1:30 p.m. in the Lynchburg Circuit Court before Judge Yeatts.

Thompson faces the following sentences for the charges to which officials say he pleaded guilty:

• Voluntary manslaughter 1-10 years
• Unlawful Shooting into an Occupied Building 1-5 years
• Child Abuse 1-5 years
