Lee Boyd Malvo, now spending the rest of his life in prison without chance of parole, was the teenage sidekick of John Allen Muhammad in the 2002 Beltway sniper murders that terrorized parts of Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia.
The two met in Jamaica, and Muhammad told the impressionable Malvo that the two would so terrorize America that they would be able to extort $10 million from the federal government, which they would use to set up a compound in Canada where they would train other poor black youth as terrorists.
Their plan was to shoot six people a day, but fortunately the two were captured after their 13th killing in the D.C. area. Boyd, 17 when the shootings took place, received multiple life sentences, whereas Muhammad was later executed.
