Marine gets 448 days jail for Iraq murder conspiracy
A military jury sentenced a Marine to 448 days in prison on Thursday after he was found guilty of conspiracy in the 2006 murder and kidnapping of an Iraqi grandfather. Because he has spent the last 450 days in detention, the punishment means Magincalda will be released from the brig on Friday.
