CHICAGO (AP) - A man convicted for the second time in the 2013 beating death of a stranger on a Chicago Transit Authority train platform has been sentenced to 25 years in prison. A Cook County judge sentenced Anthony Jackson on Wednesday in the March 2013 slaying of 37-year-old Sanchez Mixon. The Chicago Tribune reports that jurors convicted Jackson of first-degree murder in June 2021. Jackson was convicted of Mixon's murder at his first trial in 2015. But he won a new trial in 2016 when a judge threw out that verdict on the grounds that one of his previous attorneys was ineffective.
