Three men were sentenced to life in prison of Monday for killing a Broward Sheriff's Office deputy in Tamarac in 2006.
Eloyn Ingraham, Bernard Forbes and Andre Delancy could have faced the death penalty for killing Deputy Brian Tephford and injuring another during a traffic stop.
In March, each defendant was found guilty of first-degree murder of a law enforcement officer, conspiracy to commit murder and attempted murder of a law enforcement officer.
Tephford, 34, was shot dead after he pulled over a vehicle late at night on Nov. 11, 2006, outside the Versailles Gardens condominium complex in Tamarac.
His backup, Deputy Corey Carbocci, was shot five times but survived.
