Hey Hoss -
There were 15 sentences. Three death sentences, 10 sentences of between 5-25 years. Two people died in shoot-outs with the police as they were being arrested, police say. I have a chart of the full list of charges and defendants, courtesy of the Hisham Mubarak Center. Drop me a line if you’re interested.
