Ex-Morehouse Student Sentenced to Life in Prison

I recieved my current event from the Ledger Enquirer. It was published on Monday, August 31, 2009. This news article is about a Ex-Morehouse student from Jonesboro, Georgia getting sentenced to life in prison for killing one of his former classmates. A Clayton County Superior Court Judge, Deborah Bennefield sentenced Miles Allen to two life sentences plus seven years in prison on Monday in the 2006 killing of Carlnell Walker. The jury convicted Allen on 11 of 12 counts, including murder, aggravated assault, and kidnapping. He is one of four men charged with murder of Carnell Walker. Prosecutors say that his murder involved eight hours of torture. Allen stomped, beat, stabbed, and doused Walker with gasoline before dumping him inside of a car trunk outside of Walker's house.
