Short was killed in McKeesport in September 2021 while she was 17 weeks pregnant. Her body was found in an alleyway near her home.
She was the daughter of former Penn State and NFL football player Brandon Short.
Prosecutors were originally seeking the death penalty against Smith. Nearly a year ago, the Allegheny County District Attorney took that off the table.
