An Anchorage jury in April convicted Christopher Erin Rogers Jr. of first-degree murder, two counts of attempted murder, robbery, assault, vehicle theft and eluding police.
Rogers killed a 27-year-old University of Alaska Anchorage graduate student, Jason Wenger, as Wenger sat in his vehicle, parked in his driveway.
The Anchorage Daily News reports that Superior Court Judge Eric Aarseth during sentencing Friday called the shootings "quite cold-blooded."
Rogers also was convicted last year of using a machete to kill his father and seriously injure his father's fiancee in Palmer a day before the shootings.

Waste of time and space in our crowded prison system. He will never get out, so just end his meaningless life. He takes a life, but gets to live one? Sad. Death to him I say.

WOW, quite a winner - nice to see that he's been sentenced with sufficient time to be sure he won't ever be loose on society again. Not much else to do with someone that inhuman and bloody.
