FILE - In this Nov. 14, 2014 file photo Jesse Matthew Jr. looks toward the gallery while appearing in court in Fairfax, Va. Matthew, who abducted and killed two Virginia college students five years apart, was transferred to a new prison this week so he can receive medical treatment for cancer. He is serving multiple life sentences for the 2009 murder of Virginia Tech student Morgan Harrington and the 2014 murder of University of Virginia student Hannah Graham. He pleaded guilty in 2016 to both killings. A spokeswoman for the Virginia Department of Corrections confirmed that Matthew was transferred Monday, May 20, 2019, from the Red Onion State Prison in Wise County to Sussex I State Prison.
