News East Atlanta kidnappers sentenced
Posted by Mara Shalhoup on Wed, Sep 10, 2008 at 4:28 PM
The five four men who abducted two lawyers leaving an East Atlanta bar last year were given prison sentences ranging from 15 to 22 years, AJC.com reports.
The incident garnered national attention and came in the midst of a perceived spate of crime.
(Weirdly, all four of the kidnappers are named Christopher. Thanks to Pecanne Log for pointing out that bit of weirdness.)
