Chai Soua Vang, a Hmong immigrant convicted of murdering six deer hunters and attempting to kill two others after a trespassing dispute, was sentenced Tuesday in Wisconsin court to life in prison with no chance for parole. Vang said he fired in self-defense after one hunter shouted profanities at him and used racial slurs before another fired at him. He called Tuesday the happiest day of his life, saying he would no longer have to deal with child support and mortgage payments.
