    If the state laws run consecutively. Many states and under federal law, sentences for the same actions are served concurrently.

    Based on the 110 years, I'm assuming in this case they run consecutively.

    Truck driver's sentence lowered to 10 years after originally receiving 110 years for fatal crash

    A truck driver who was sentenced to 110 years in prison for a fatal accident in Colorado has been resentenced to 10 years after an outcry from family and advocates.

    Gov. Jared Polis announced the commutation of Rogel Aguilera-Mederos' sentence Thursday.

    "I am writing to inform you that I am granting your application for a commutation," Polis wrote. "After learning about the highly atypical and unjust sentence in your case, I am commuting your sentence to 10 years and granting you parole eligibility on December 30, 2026."...
