U.S. Army Sergeant Daniel Perry has been sentenced to 25 years in prison for shooting and killing an armed Black Lives Matter rioter in self-defense.

35-year-old Perry was sentenced today after being convicted of “murder” for the 2020 death of a BLM rioter who pointed an AK-47 at him.

Perry was found guilty of murder last month and was facing anywhere from 5 to 99 years behind bars.

However, following Perry’s conviction, Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott vowed to pardon him.
