FILE This photo provided by the Memphis (Tenn.) Police Dept. on Friday, Jan. 20, 2012, shows Sedrick Clayton.   Clayton offered to plead guilty and serve three life terms for gunning down his girlfriend and her parents. Although prosecutors have accepted such offers before in death penalty cases, including one in which the victims were a police officer and another man, this time they aren’t interested in a deal. Legal experts say that while prosecutors have that right, it's unusual that they would accept a deal in the officer shooting case and not from Clayton, who goes on trial Monday, April 7, 2014.
