Life Sentence
Longtime readers may remember this post about a kid who went on a shooting rampage in Sallisaw, Oklahoma a couple of years ago.
The shooting spree began after someone criticized Daniel Hawke Fears' driving ability. Fears, who was an 18-year-old senior at Sallisaw High School at the time, then went on a shooting rampage that started in a Sallisaw neighborhood and continued until authorities arrested Fears on a nearby highway.
His attorney argued at trial that Fears was schizophrenic, but the jury convicted on 2 counts of first-degree murder and 15 assorted felonies.
He was sentenced today to life in prison without parole.
