How in the world did it take a month for them to arrest him? It seems like he told the cops immediately about his “prank” and what happened. That’s absolutely manslaughter and he should have been arrested immediately.
"Like Mrgan, Whitley served many years in the military. He is a retired major in the South Carolina National Guard and volunteered for the Army Special Forces, according to affidavits as part of his 2007 divorce case.
Whitley also served as a reserve deputy in the Charleston County Sheriff’s Office from April 1995 through June 2013, spokesman Andrew Knapp."
The article describes the guy as: "Whitley, “a firearms expert,”" Is he one of the experts that the cops go to when they find an "arsenal" in some citizen's home? I'd bet he IS an expert at pricing merchandise LOL.

a loaded 1911 from one without a full magazine clip,
based upon the weight.
