BREAKING NEWS: Multiple life terms for mentally ill man in kidnapping/rape case
Torrance Superior Court Judge Eric Taylor sentenced Brian Foucher, 32, to 20 years and eight months, plus four life terms, this morning for kidnapping and raping one woman - and trying to do the same to three others - in the South Bay in 2002.
Foucher's history of mental illness, which did not come into play during his jury trial, was the focus of today's hearing.
We'll have a full story up later.
