10 longest prison sentences in human history

(Baonghean.vn) - Crimes must be punished, that is the reason why laws exist. In some countries that have abolished the death penalty, many criminal cases can only be punished by increasing the number of years served.

1.Darrell Wayne Help (Virginia, USA)

One of the longest prison sentences in the world is that of Darrell Wayne Help from Virginia, USA. He was sentenced to 755 years for child sex crimes.

2.Martin John Bryant (Australia)

Known as the killer with the face of an angel and the most brutal killer of the 20th century, Martin John Bryant showed an unusual personality from an early age. He committed one of the most brutal murders in Australia. According to police statistics, Martin shot dead 35 people and injured 18 others. Not only that, he was also the perpetrator of 4 arson cases and 3 car thefts. The trial took place in 2016 and attracted public attention. With such a serious crime, the killer was sentenced to life in prison with no parole for 1,050 years.

3. JJames Holmes Eagan (M(y)

When talking about classic cases in American history, we cannot fail to mention the shooting at the theater showing The Dark Knight Rises in Aurora, Colorado, on July 20, 2012. The killer, who was said to be a member of the audience sitting in the front row, wore a bulletproof vest and gas mask, threw tear gas grenades and continuously fired into the crowd. Initially, the majority did not suspect anything and thought James was a stunt actor to promote the movie. The tragic ending happened with 12 people dead and 58 others injured. The only suspect was a 24-year-old medical student named James Holmes Eagan. Immediately, the killer was arrested and sentenced to 12 charges, equivalent to 3,318 years in prison.

4.Dudley Wayne Kyzer (M(y)

10,000 years in prison was the sentence given to murderer Dudley Wayne Kyzer for the murders of his ex-wife, mother-in-law, and a college student in 1976. The killer later appealed and asked for a lighter sentence. But after much debate, his sentence was upheld. Now 75, Kyzer has reformed and “feels remorse” for his crimes. However, this sinful old man was denied parole for the 10th time just a few months ago.

5.Darron Bennalford Anderson (M(y)

Darron Bennalford Anderson was sentenced to more than 2,000 years in prison for heinous crimes including sexual assault of an elderly woman, theft, robbery and kidnapping. However, he appealed and the sentence was increased to 11,250 years in prison.

6. Three criminals in Spain

On the eve of the 2004 Spanish election, three criminals carried out a train bombing that shocked the world, killing 192 people and injuring more than 1,500 others. The three criminals were sentenced to 42,924 years, 42,922 years, and 34,715 years, respectively.

7.Chamoy Thipyaso (Th(Ireland)

It is surprising that the world record for the longest prison sentence “fell into the hands” of a woman with a high social status. That is Mrs. Chamoy Thipyaso - wife of a senior Thai air force officer. Her sentence is 141,078 years for participating in a pyramid scheme fraud, which defrauded 16,231 people and illegally profited 2 million pounds. One of Chamoy Thipyaso’s victims was even of Thai royal lineage, so she has no hope of any leniency.

8.Sholam Weiss (M(y)

Sholam Weiss, who was involved in insurance fraud at the National Estate Life Insurance Company, fled to Australia. A year later, he was extradited to the United States to stand trial. His 845-year prison sentence was a record-breaking sentence for a fraudster.

9.Charles Scott Robinson (Oklahoma, USA)

Charles Scott Robinson has been sentenced to 5,000 years in prison for each of the six crimes he has committed, including child rape, by a court in the US state of Oklahoma. He faces up to 30,000 years in prison for six crimes, including child rape. His accomplice was sentenced to 20,750 years in prison.

10.Matthew Ayers and Patricia (Alabama, USA)

Matthew Ayers and Patricia, a couple from Florence, Alabama, were sentenced to 1,590 and 750 years in prison respectively for about 100 crimes, including producing and distributing obscene images of a child in their care. The couple took and sold obscene images of the child from the summer of 2010 until January 2013, and even forced the girl to perform obscene acts with them on video to sell to customers. They also helped customers who bought their obscene products come to their house to have sex with the poor girl they held.
