U.S. District Judge Edward J. Davila handed down the sentence in federal court in San José, matching the recommendation from both the U.S. Attorney’s Office and Tillman’s public defender, which stems from a February plea agreement.
Tillman spoke at length about his beliefs during a statement he gave to the court, saying he believes that he is the son of God and created all things, people and animals.
