Terry Nichols:

His Life Before Jesus Came In:

He was sentenced to life in prison for being co-conspirator in the April 19, 1995, bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building, the worst act of domestic terrorism in U.S. history.  The state charges are for the other 160 victims and one victim's fetus. Bud Welch, a death-penalty opponent whose daughter, Julie-Marie Welch, died in the bombing, said even some families who were angry that Nichols was spared a death sentence in his federal trial opposed the state charges. "It just made sense the jury would not go for the death penalty," Welch said.
 

His Life Since Jesus Came In:

During the sentencing portion of his June 2004 retrial, defense witnesses testified that Nichols had worn out four Bibles through prayer and research, and that he wrote an 83-page letter to a prayer partner in Michigan while trying to make a point about Christian faith. Lawyers for both the prosecution and defense agreed jurors were influenced in this June 2004 retrial verdict by Nichols's religious conversion. Nichols was also portrayed as susceptible to manipulation by Timothy J. McVeigh, the bombing's mastermind.

"Terry Nichols's belief in God is so firm that he believes if the rapture occurred today, he is going to heaven," defense attorney Creekmore Wallace told jurors. After convicting him of 161 counts of murder in just five hours, the jurors wrestled with his punishment for 19 1/2 hours before concluding they could not agree on a penalty. The deadlock means that Nichols will automatically be sentenced to life in prison for the April 19, 1995, bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building, the worst act of domestic terrorism in U.S. history. Wallace said Nichols's religious conversion is genuine, and that jurors may also have believed that Nichols was used by McVeigh, who was executed on federal murder charges on June 11, 2001.

He received the same sentence in 1998 on federal convictions for the deaths of eight federal law enforcement officers. That jury deadlocked after 13 1/2 hours of deliberation.
