(CNN) Jared Loughner is sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole for the January 2011 attempted assassination of then-U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, the killings of six people and attempted murder of 13 others.

“The evidence clearly shows that he knew what he was doing, despite his mental illness,” U.S. District Judge Larry Burns said.
