Jacqueline Montanez reacts to a testimony by the brother of one of the victims, during her sentencing hearing at Leighton Criminal Court Building in Chicago on Friday, Oct. 14, 2016. Montanez, who was a juvenile when she was sentenced to life in prison for killing two gang rivals in 1992, was resentenced to 63 years in prison, clearing the way for her release in as soon as 7 1/2 years. Her case was one of dozens in Illinois sent back for resentencing after the U.S. Supreme Court in 2012 found mandatory natural life sentences for juveniles unconstitutional.
