Boy, 17, sentenced to 23 YEARS for fatally shooting a retired police dog
That headline is a misstatement. His sentence would have been the same if he only maimed the dog. Discharge of a firearm during a burglary should be good for 10 by itself.

I believe the law is 10-20-life, and the 20 would apply in this case.
