Judge hands young New Orleans killer 362 years plus life in prison: 'I think that you are the worst of the worst'
A brief courtroom apology was no help to Charles “Chuck” Carter Jr.
Orleans Parish Criminal District Court Judge Laurie White on Wednesday sentenced Carter to 362 years in prison and an additional life sentence for his role in a bloody armed robbery spree over three weeks in 2012 that left U.S. Navy veteran and UNO film student Valan May dead and Uptown lawyer Sanford Bull “Sandy” Kaynor paralyzed and mute.
A jury in January convicted Carter, 19, on charges of attempted murder in Sandy Kaynor’s shooting, second-degree murder in May’s killing 17 days later and three counts of armed robbery.
Each armed robbery count carries a maximum 99-year prison term, and that’s what White handed Carter, adding five years to each count for firearms enhancements.
She also sentenced Carter to the maximum 50 years for the attempted murder of Kaynor, who was shot outside his Camp Street home during an armed robbery on Oct. 2, 2012.
