Judge overturns life sentences for DC sniper Lee Boyd Malvo - Daily Mail

The notorious Beltway sniper Lee Boyd Malvo had four life sentences thrown out by a federal judge on Friday because they were retroactively deemed unconstitutional. In his ruling, US District Judge Raymond Jackson in Norfolk, Virginia, said Malvo is entitled to new sentencing hearings after the US Supreme Court ruled mandatory life sentences for juveniles are unconstitutional. Malvo was 17 when he was arrested in 2002 for a series of shootings that killed at least 10 people and wounded three others in Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia, causing widespread fear throughout the region.
