Henchman was already sentenced to two life sentences for a separate drug and gun convictions but this particular case went through a few trials. The first trial concluded with a hung jury before a second trial commenced. That one ended with a conviction and a life sentence but it would later be determined that the judge made a mistake at one point. The third trial ended with a conviction for Henchman as well as a life sentence. His lawyers previously argued that the witnesses to testified against Henchman were only trying to cut years off of their own sentences.
