Three former Birmingham college students are headed for federal prison cells after a judge Monday ordered them to serve sentences ranging from seven to eight years for a series of rural church fires.
U.S. District Judge David Proctor sentenced Matthew Cloyd, 21, and Benjamin Moseley, 20, to eight-year prison terms for setting fire to nine churches in West Alabama. Russell DeBusk, 20, who confessed to setting five fires, received a seven-year sentence.

These morons were setting fires because they didn’t have much luck “spotlighting deer?” What in the world?
I suppose they are going to pay back 3 million with their proceeds from making license plates
I don’t beleive it.
Instead of locking them up, they should make the 3 rebuild each church they burned, working 12 hours a day under the Alabama sun, while wearing leg irons.
