Federal appeals court affirms life sentence for Frank James, New York City subway shooter.
A federal appeals court has upheld the life sentence of Frank James, who shot ten people on a New York City subway in April 2022. Convicted of multiple counts related to the attack, James argued he lacked intent to kill. The court disagreed, citing evidence of his intent and prior statements about violence. James had pleaded guilty to 11 charges, receiving ten concurrent life sentences plus an additional ten years, with the appeal requests denied.
