Ex-reserve deputy Robert Bates, who says he mistook his revolver for his stun gun, has been found guilty of second-degree manslaughter in the death of Eric Courtney Harris last year.
Bates, who was a volunteer with the Tulsa County Sheriff's Office, never denied killing Harris in April 2015.
'Oh! I shot him! I'm sorry!" Bates said as captured in a video of the shooting during a sting operation to try to catch Harris illegally selling a gun.
