A Los Angeles gang member received a prison sentence of more than five-and-a-half centuries Thursday for shooting a Los Angeles Police Department SWAT officer, who was saved by his helmet, and wounding a police K-9 during a series of shootouts in 2017, authorities said.
Jose Afredo Rauda, 36, was convicted earlier this month of 12 counts of attempted murder on a peace officer, 19 counts of assault with a firearm on a peace officer, four counts of assault with a firearm and once count of assault on a police animal, shooting at an occupied vehicle and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, according to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.
He returned to Los Angeles County Superior Court for sentencing on Thursday, where he received a prison term of 553 years and 8 months to life, prosecutors said in a written statement.
…
Rauda’s criminal history in Los Angeles County dates back to 2004, when he was convicted of auto theft and being a convicted felon in possession of a gun, Los Angeles County Superior Court records show. He was convicted of vandalism and providing a false identity to police in 2007; robbery in 2012; violating a court order, being a felon in possession of a gun and vandalism in 2011; and giving a false identity to police in 2017

Boy is he gonna cost us a Fortune over 500 years!!
I wonder how long parole will be?
And what happens when miracle life extending treatments come out?
They’re gonna have to build bigger prisons :)
Well geez that’s real to bad. 99 and a day would have sufficed. Pardon me (no pun intended). I gotta go laugh my arse off.
Don’t forget his taxpayer funded sex-change operation.
Damn. Compared to this, Khalid Shaikh Mohammad should get a geologic epoch in the slammer (unless he gets what he deserves, death).
500 years giving 49 scumbags that should be serving 10 a free ride.
Sensational BS.
Just kill him.
LOL
there will be 3827 sexes by then!!
He may have 2194 over 500 years!!
Wanna stop this crap? There should be public beheadings of these murderous bastards.
There were public beheadings for hundreds of years in countries around the world. As far as I can tell this crap hasn’t stopped. It is good for entertainment purposes but not much of a deterrent.
99 and a day meant he would live long enough to be eligible for parole. Incredibly long sentences are given to ensure they never get out.
The criminal nitwit should be thrown into a wood chipper. What an absolute waste of taxpayers’ money not killing this reprobate psychopath.
When he dies, board up the cell with notes to open it up in 2519 and remove the skeleton and turn it over to family if they can be found
lol
Five centuries might sound bad but with good behavior he’ll be out in three.
Do police get that long for actually killing someone?
How ridiculous!
“Boy is he gonna cost us a Fortune over 500 years!!”
As long as he voted Democrat the whole time, that’s all they want.
