Case was sentenced to Life in prison without the chance for parole for First Degree Murder.^[1] He was given a second life sentence for Armed Criminal Action, running concurrently with his other sentence.

Contrary to what has occasionally been stated on his supporters' web site, he did not get two consecutive sentences (sometimes calle a "double life sentence"). "Concurrent" sentences mean in effect that he got a single life sentence.

Case is now serving his sentence at the Crossroads Correctional Center in Cameron, Missouri.^[2] While he briefly lost his privileges in early 2008 for deliberate and repeated violations of Department of Corrections policies, he now regularly gets cable TV, pay-per-view movies, phone privileges, excercise facilities, and can work at a job at the center. What he does not get is his freedom.
