ROCKVILLE, Md. – Sniper John Allen Muhammad was sentenced to six consecutive life terms without parole Thursday in what Maryland prosecutors and the victims’ families consider insurance in case his death sentence in Virginia is thrown out.
“You chose the wrong community, sir,to stain with your acts of violence,” Circuit Judge James Ryan said.”You, Mr. Muhammad, have no hope. You have no future.You will spend the rest of your life locked in a cage.”
