Seven more sentenced to prison over protest outside Texas detention center

Judge hands down 50-year sentence to defendant Ines Soto, whose wife Elizabeth was sentenced to same prison term

Seven more people were sentenced to prison Wednesday over a shooting outside a Texas immigration detention center that wounded a police officer and has left many protesters facing decades behind bars.

All but one of the defendants sentenced in Fort Worth courtrooms pleaded guilty to charges related to the shooting outside the Prairieland detention center near Dallas last July 4. They each were sentenced to between nearly two and 15 years in prison.
