HAYWARD, WIS. -- Chai Soua Vang, who killed six Wisconsin deer hunters and wounded two others last fall, was sentenced this afternoon to life in prison with no possibility of release.
Vang will serve six life sentences, plus five years for each, consecutively, said Judge Norman Yackel, in Sawyer County Circuit Court in Hayward.
Yackel said the sentences are the harshest provided by the state and were justified by the gravity of the offense, Vang's character as well as a need to protect the community and deter future crime.

I guess the race card didn't work.
ping!
Finally our justice system has issued something that is at least acceptable.
Too bad Wisconsin doesn't have the death penalty.
On the other hand, prison life may be a suitable punishment for the POS.
The news of Vang's sentencing warms the cockles of my heart. May he rot in jail. But on the other hand, there is a good chance in the state prison he will run into one of those with a hatred for such trash and will impose the capital punishment he deserves. This trial should have been held in Texas, a place that is usually the last stop for the savages that roam this society.
Six consecutive life sentences...
We all know that means he'll be out after two.
Occassionally our court system does work.
Sentenced to 6 lifetimes or one lethal injection, whichever comes first.
The guy doesn't deserve to draw one more breath after being convicted of preventing six others from continuing to live.
At least he won't be back on the street. Of coures, after five years goes by, a fan club will pop up and list all the wonderful things he's done from prison. They they'll demand he be released.
Cross-linking.
HAYWARD, Wis. - A Hmong immigrant convicted of murdering six deer hunters and attempting to kill two others after a dispute over trespassing in northwestern Wisconsin was sentenced to life in prison Tuesday with no chance for parole.
It would suck to be him. Probably quite literally.
He'll be especially hated in prison. If he makes it to a natural death inside the walls I'll be surprised.
No; but I've got 20 that says he'll be wearing a depends before the year is out.
He shot people in the back, man. In the back!
What kind of monster does that?
I wish each of the family members could have a piece of him.
What group will he hang with? Anyway you cut it, it doesn't look good for him. Because of his crime and his statements in court, I can only guess that certain groups like the AB are waiting to meet Mr Vang. Sorry I'm a big OZ fan.
Any way to try him Federally? After all, his hatred of white people is a hate crime. Heck since that category is now de facto, ludicrous as it is, let's use it to the hilt.
His own racism will indeed invite that fitting fate.
