D.C. Sniper Lee Malvo To Get New Sentencing Hearings


Recommended Posts

More than a decade and a half after a weeks-long sniper rampage paralyzed the region around Washington, D.C., one of its two perpetrators is likely to get new sentencing hearings. An appeals court in Virginia confirmed Thursday that several of Lee Boyd Malvo's life sentences without parole must be vacated.

Malvo is serving time in prison for his role in the mysterious killings that left 10 people dead in the District of Columbia's surrounding suburbs in 2002. Malvo, who was 17 years old at the time of the attacks, was tried as a juvenile and given life imprisonment 10 times over — with four life sentences in Virginia and six in Maryland.

SP ruling a few yrs back says those under 18 cannot be sentenced to life without parole.

But, the article says this only applies to the 4 Virginia sentences. The guy has 10 murder convictions, let him rot.

168 grains 30-06 round would be better for that guy , but he’s gonna waste taxpayers with all those appeals crap. 

Did he shoot anyone or just hang with the old guy I forget? :dunno:
