SATANIST GETS 80 YEARS IN BEATINGS OF WOMEN

A self-proclaimed Satanist was sentenced to an 80-year prison term in a plea bargain over attacks on elderly women.

Willie Hills, 28, was accused of beating two women in their 80s until they were unconscious, raping and beating a third elderly woman and fondling and tying up another.

Hills told police and psychologists that he believes in Satan and that he committed the attacks "to gain power."
