MUNICH—A member of a German neo-Nazi gang was jailed for life on July 11 for her part in the murders of 10 people during a seven-year campaign of racially-motivated violence.

Beate Zschäpe, 43, showed no reaction as the judge read out her sentence at the end of one of the most closely watched court cases in Germany’s post-war history.
