In 2019, Brenton Tarrant attacked two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, killing 51 people and injuring dozens more. He was found guilty in court and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
The full sentence, however, isn't technically just life imprisonment for Tarrant. In the judge's ruling, he instead sentenced Tarrant to life in prison for each of the 51 murder victims. The judge did not say this at the same time. He was also given 12 years for each of the 40 attempted murder cases although these had to be done simultaneously and not consecutively. He was later given an additional life sentence for committing acts of terrorism. So, he served 52 life sentences.
8. Darren Bennalford Anderson, United States(Sentences Over 11,000 Years)
Darron Bennalford Anderson has one of the worst lawyers in American history to account for his prison sentence. Anderson was tried with his accomplice, Allen Wayne McLaurin, for rape in 1996. Both men were given harsh sentences.
On appeal, the judge agreed that Anderson had been wrongfully convicted. Instead of 2,200 years, Anderson was given 1,750 years for kidnapping, 2,000 years for each of the two counts of first-degree rape, and 2,000 years each on two more counts, 500 for robbery and 500 for grand theft. He managed to add more than 9,000 years to his sentence for a total of 11,250 years.

In 2004, a series of bombings in Madrid killed 191 people and injured nearly 2,000. The ten bombs hidden in backpacks were hidden in four different commuter trains. There was a huge conspiracy behind the attack and several terrorist groups were suspected of being involved although it never seemed to work out during the investigation.
Some of the guilty received fairly light sentences of only 23 years, relatively speaking, and some were even acquitted. But not everyone just goes down. Three people, convicted of supplying explosives, were sentenced to thousands of years per piece. One is nearly 43,000 years old, and the other 35,000 years.
