This is a list of longest prison sentences ever given to a single person, worldwide. Listed are instances where people have been sentenced to jail terms in excess of a human lifetime, but effectively the same purpose. Note that many national legislations worldwide do not allow for such sentences.

The defense argued during the trial that the victim lied and had told the judge at a preliminary hearing that the rapes did not happen. The victim’s mother also took the stand to testify against her daughter. They recommended 99 years for each of the number of times the girl was raped, resulting in a sentence of 990 years.[136] But, according to Alabama Department of Corrections, Wood received an additional 10 years for first-degree sexual abuse. This totals 1,000 years.

  228. Jamie Rogers (April 10, 2014). "A history of violence – Can Missoula public schools truly be prepared for a school shooting?". Missoula Independent (Missoula, Montana). Archived from the original on May 7, 2016. After Moffatt recovered from the gunshot wound and four subsequent surgeries, he became the principal at Garfield Elementary in Lewistown, a position he held until retiring in 2010. Today, he and his wife, Maggie, live in Missoula, and Moffatt occasionally substitutes for MCPS. He applauds the district's efforts to address difficult issues, and he says he's "for anything that schools do to make the environment safer for kids." But, in his mind, any district can only achieve so much as long as gun laws remain the same. He points out that homicide is now the second leading cause of death for school-age Americans, and while school shootings are "horrific tragedies," homicides on school grounds account for less than 2 percent of the lives lost. "Some people think it always happens somewhere else, others think it's going to happen anytime," he says of school shootings, "but we need to look at the big picture. There are relatively few communities in the United States that have dealt with a school shooting ... But there are very few communities that have not lost a child to gun violence."
