Judge overturns life without parole sentence for DC sniper Lee Boyd Malvo

WASHINGTON - A federal district court judge has overturned the sentence of Lee Boyd Malvo, one of the two people convicted in D.C.-area Beltway sniper attacks nearly 15 years ago, according to a ruling released Friday.

Malvo was sentenced to life in prison without parole for the sniper-style attacks committed around the region in October 2002 along with John Allen Muhammad. Ten people were killed and three others were shot during a three-week period.

Malvo appealed to the court saying he should not have been sentenced to life without parole because he was 17 years old at the time of the murders and he based his appeal on the Supreme Court ruling in Miller v. Alabama.

#1 - Miller v Alabama was also an insane ruling (based on the criteria for the decisions). Add to it - it simply goes against logic and reason.

17 years old - old enough to make the decision to murder across states with his “friend”. How many did he kill (that we know of)?

Which of those victims get a “re-do”?

I would settle for 20 years for each trigger pull, that resulted in a death, or injury!
Ten people are killed and three injured in sniper-style shootings. John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo are arrested, tried and convicted for the shootings.

I recall reading that Hillary Clinton pressured the county to hire a black person when they did the job search that resulted in Chief Moose getting the job. Apparently there were code phrases in the messages he had received from the killers that made it pretty clear that the killers were black, but he ignored that evidence while more people were killed.

The killers specifically targeted white people to kill. Did that figure in the judge's decision to be nice to Malvo?
