The Attorney General in Rhode Island is denying anyone in his office played any role in shaping a plea deal for the owners of the Station Nightclub, where 100-people were killed in a fire three years ago.

He's not holding out much hope of blocking it though. The judge in the case is making it clear he plans to stick to the agreement under which one owner would spend four years behind bars and the other would do no jail time at all.
