The Supreme Court says accidentally shooting

The Supreme Court says accidentally shooting
a gun during the commission of a crime should bring the same
penalties as intentionally using a firearm. This came as the high
court on Wednesday upheld the conviction and sentence of
Christopher Michael Dean, who was arrested for trying to rob a
bank in Rome, Ga., in 2004. A gun went off accidentally during
the attempted robbery when Dean tried to switch the weapon from
one hand to the other. The discharge brought an automatic 10-year
sentence for firing a weapon during a crime. Dean appealed,

the gun was accidental. Federal prosecutors said the law doesn't
