Colorado school gunman gets life with possibility of parole

According to the write up the given sentence was life in prison plus 38 years with the possibility of parole after about two decades behind bars. Forgive me if this is a dumb question, but what in the world is the meaning of a life sentence plus 38 years? Where do the authority figures get the impression that people have the ability to garner another 38 years of life after they kick the bucket?

God bless you always!!!

If a life sentence is levied, he is eligible for parole at age 40. Now, tack on the 38 years and he's now eligible for parole at age 78. Pretty much a life without parole sentence would be against the laws in Colorado. But the Life plus 38 does essentially the same thing and it's legal.
 

This mentally ill idiot should NEVER walk free again
Oh goody the left wing idiots who now run Colorado get to pay for feeding and housing that piece of shit and keeping him alive for the rest of his worthless existence.
Life in prison only makes sense if it's life at hard labor to reduce the cost to taxpayers until they chose to end it all and end by their own hand.

His life isn't worth a plug in Prison. In the next few decades, someone with children in Prison will shank him.

One can always hope so.
