Menu Help Tips . Man pleads guilty in dragging death A central Pennsylvania man pleaded guilty yesterday to charges that he killed a man he met in a bar by tying him to the back of a pickup truck and dragging him several hundred feet. Freed apologized to Land's family in court after pleading guilty to third-degree murder, aggravated assault, reckless endangerment and related charges. Freed's plea came on what was to have been a third day of jury selection for his trial, in which Winder had planned to seek the death penalty. Freed told police he first met Land at a bar near where both men lived on the night of the slaying.
