A Maryland man who was convicted of killing another man in New York with a sword was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

James Harris Jackson confessed to the killing, pleading guilty last month to first-degree murder and second-degree murder as an act of terrorism. In New York Supreme Court on Feb. 13, he apologized for killing Timothy Caughman, 66, with a Roman-style sword.
