HUNTSVILLE — Former Huntsville police officer William Ben Darby pleaded guilty Friday to manslaughter and will serve three years of probation for shooting and killing a man threatening suicide five years ago. Darby was sentenced to 20 years, but the sentence was split and reversed for him to serve three years of probation. As long as he doesn’t violate the terms of his probation, he will avoid going back to prison.
