Sgt. Vincinte Jackson was convicted and sentenced to life in prison Thursday in the death of 28-year-old Spc. Brandy Fonteneaux of Houston. He said at the hearing he doesn't know why he killed Fonteneaux, who was found dead Jan. 8 in her room – stabbed 74 times...

A military panel sentenced Jackson to life with the possibility of parole, though prosecutors couldn't immediately say how many years he would serve before becoming eligible...

Brandy Fonteneaux knew Jackson but they were not close, according to the aunt who raised her, Bevenly Thomas. Fonteneaux had told her family that Jackson confided in her about his crumbling marriage. Thomas said she asked Fonteneaux if she and Jackson had a romantic relationship, and she replied, "No, Mom. He's married. He's too old."
