Larry Mahoney, left, is led from the Carroll County, Ky., courthouse after he was sentenced to 16 years in prison Friday for causing the fiery church bus crash in 1988 that claimed 27 lives in the nation's worst-ever drunken-driving accident. Mahoney was convicted of 81 charges stemming from the accident, in which his truck plowed into the bus while driving the wrong way on I-71. Prosecutors called the penalty insufficient.
