They were staying at a vacation rental in Kailua-Kona last year when a night out drinking ended in a deadly fight. Fleming was charged with manslaughter after an autopsy showed that Abhishek Gupta of Pittsburgh was strangled. Authorities said an argument between the men turned physical. 'I emphasized throughout the trial that Mr. Gupta's death was undoubtedly a tragedy, but it was not a crime. Thankfully, the jury agreed, and we appreciate their service,' Fleming's attorney, Thomas Otake, said in an email Monday.
