Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was sentenced to death by a jury May 15 for helping carry out the 2013 attack that killed three people and wounded 264 in the crowds at the race’s finish line.

After deliberating for 15 hours, the federal jury chose death by lethal injection for Tsarnaev, 21, over its only other option: life in prison without the possibility of release.

Defense attorneys are likely to appeal the sentence, a process that could stretch out for many years. (Reuters)
