8 convicted in Texas immigration center shooting and protest are sentenced to decades in prison
A former Marine reservist and seven others received lengthy prison sentences, some up to 100 years, for a shooting that injured a police officer during a Texas protest. Prosecutors labeled the incident terrorism, linking the group to antifa, a claim defense attorneys deny. Families expressed outrage over the severe penalties, arguing the demonstration was peaceful and no one died, while a judge deemed it an "assault on democracy."
