The bastard got off light.

On the other hand, this being the military justice system, he'll never be paroled, and his testimony against his fellow criminals will ensure that _they_ hang. In a better world, he would too, but then again, in a better world their victim would never have been raped and murdered in the first place.
Update: I stand corrected. According to This article, the waste of skin could be paroled in ten years. We can hope that he "accidentally" dies in prison first, but that's not too likely. I guess this is the downside of military prisons being more professionally run than their civilian counterparts; Every so often, a prisoner really _does_ deserve to be brutalized by the guards and/or raped to death by his fellow prisoners.
