Sentencing
Mehserle was originally scheduled to be sentenced on August 6, 2010. On August 6, sentencing was rescheduled for November 5, so the judge could hear additional motions in the case.
On November 5, 2010, Mehserle was sentenced to two years with double credit for time already served, reducing his term by 292 days for the 146 days he has already spent in jail. The judge overturned the gun enhancement, which could have added an additional 3 to 10 years to the sentence. He was released from prison at 12:01am on June 13, 2011.
