The Seattle Times says James M. Kelly was sentenced last week to 70 years of incarceration. KING 5 says the court-martial ran Nov. 2 through Nov. 5 and prints a reduction to E-1. Stars and Stripes calls the festival Beyond Woodland and says the sentence was on Friday.

Seventy years of incarceration, on The Seattle Times, 70 years in prison, on KING 5, 70 years in military prison, in the KIRO 7 headline, and 70 years in confinement, on KOMO and NBC Right Now, are not the same phrase. Beyond Wonderland, on those pages, and Beyond Woodland, on Stars and Stripes, are not the same name. February 2025 and February 2026 are not the same year. The 70 years is the sentence those pages print after the guilty plea.

The Seattle Times, by Paige Cornwell, Nov. 10, 2026, at 6:00 a.m., updated at 6:00 a.m., with no zone printed on either clock, reported James M. Kelly, 29, was sentenced last week to 70 years of incarceration after he pleaded guilty at a court-martial to two counts of murder of a Seattle couple at the Beyond Wonderland festival, and to counts, which that page says are called specifications in military court, of domestic violence, reckless discharge of a firearm, and the wrongful use and possession of psilocybin. It says he was a fire support specialist assigned to the 2nd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, where the court-martial was held, that he will be incarcerated at the Army's prison in Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, and that the sentence includes a dishonorable discharge. KING 5, by Dalton Day, published and updated at 7:33 a.m. PST on November 10, 2026, reported a military judge at Joint Base Lewis-McChord sentenced Spc. James M. Kelly, 29, to 70 years in prison after he pleaded guilty to murdering two women and wounding three others, that the court-martial was held Nov. 2 through Nov. 5, and that he will be reduced in rank to E-1, dishonorably discharged, and will serve the sentence at the United States Disciplinary Barracks at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. KIRO 7, by Katy Wade, November 10, 2026, at 8:05 a.m. PST, headlines 70 years in military prison. The body says a military judge sentenced him to 70 years in confinement, reduced his rank to E-1, and ordered a dishonorable discharge, after a court-martial at Joint Base Lewis-McChord from Nov. 2 through Nov. 5, 2026. KOMO, by KOMO News Staff, Tuesday, November 10, 2026, at 7:08 a.m., updated at 7:12 a.m., with no zone printed, reported a court-martial at the Cascade Court Complex from Nov. 2 through Nov. 5, a sentence of 70 years in confinement, a reduction to E-1, a dishonorable discharge, and the United States Disciplinary Barracks. The photograph caption on that page says James Kelly, 26, in a Grant County courtroom on June 21, 2023. Age 26, in that caption, and 29, in the KOMO body and on The Seattle Times, KING 5 and KIRO 7, are not the same age. Last week, on The Seattle Times, and Nov. 2 through Nov. 5, on KING 5, KIRO 7 and KOMO, are not the same calendar. Two counts of murder, and specifications, are The Seattle Times. KING 5, KIRO 7 and KOMO do not print two counts or the word specifications. E-1 is on KING 5, KIRO 7 and KOMO. It is not on The Seattle Times page. The Army's prison, on The Seattle Times, and the United States Disciplinary Barracks, on the other three, are not the same name. Stars and Stripes, by Corey Dickstein, on a page whose address is dated 2026-11-09 and which said published 23 hours ago and did not print an absolute clock, reported 70 years in prison, a reduction to E-1 and a dishonorable discharge. It says he admitted last week to the shootings during the Beyond Woodland electronic dance music festival, that he pleaded guilty Nov. 2 ahead of his trial, and that he remained jailed until his sentencing on Friday. Beyond Woodland, on Stars and Stripes, and Beyond Wonderland, on The Seattle Times, KING 5, KIRO 7 and KOMO, are not the same name. Friday, on Stars and Stripes, and a court-martial that ran through Nov. 5, on KING 5, KIRO 7 and KOMO, are not the same day. Ahead of his trial, on Stars and Stripes, and a guilty plea during the Nov. 2 through Nov. 5 court-martial, on KING 5, are not the same timing. NBC Right Now, by Caleb McGever, Nov. 10, 2026, on a page that said updated 3 mins ago and did not print an absolute clock, reported he changed his plea from not guilty to guilty before a military judge from November 2 to November 5 at the Cascade Court Complex, and that the Army release says the judge sentenced him to 70 years of confinement, a reduction to E-1 and a dishonorable discharge. Changed his plea, on NBC Right Now, and pleaded guilty, on KING 5, are not the same verb. The Seattle Times says the Army took the prosecution after a request from the Grant County prosecuting attorney's office and does not print the month. KING 5, KIRO 7 and KOMO say February 2026. Stars and Stripes says Grant County prosecutors turned the case over to the Army in February and does not print the year. NBC Right Now says the case was transferred to military court in February 2025. February 2026, February with no year, and February 2025 are not the same date.

The Seattle Times says that on June 17, 2023, he was at the festival with his girlfriend, ingested psychedelic mushrooms, began acting paranoid, and at their campsite shot two women who were nearby. It names Brandy Escamilla, 29, and Josilyn Ruiz, 26, says they were high school sweethearts who had moved from California to Seattle to pursue nursing careers and planned to marry in Greece, says he struck a bystander in the shoulder, then shot his girlfriend twice after she dialed 911, and that he fired at three security officers, injuring one, and at a police drone. KING 5 says he ingested psilocybin at Beyond Wonderland on June 17, 2023, returned to his campsite, and shot and killed Escamilla and Ruiz, two women he did not know who were passing nearby, both nurses in Seattle, who were engaged. It says he struck a bystander in the shoulder, then moved away with his girlfriend, and when she attempted to call 911 and intervene he assaulted her and shot her twice in the lower body, then fired at an all-terrain vehicle occupied by three security personnel and shot a law enforcement drone, and that police shot and injured him. A Seattle couple, on The Seattle Times, and two women he did not know who were engaged, on KING 5, are not the same description. High school sweethearts who planned to marry in Greece, on The Seattle Times, and engaged nurses, on KING 5, are not the same sentence. Shot his girlfriend twice after she dialed 911, on The Seattle Times, and assaulted her and shot her twice in the lower body, on KING 5, are not the same sequence. No page used here prints her name. KIRO 7 says he retrieved a handgun from a locked box inside his truck, that court documents the station had obtained said he told investigators he was hallucinating and believed the world was ending, and that he shot Escamilla, 29, and Ruiz, 26, as the couple passed near the campsite at the Gorge Amphitheatre near George. It names the wounded bystander as Andrew Cuadra of Eugene. That name is not on The Seattle Times, KING 5, KOMO, Stars and Stripes, or NBC Right Now. KIRO 7 says that when she called 911 and attempted to intervene he assaulted her and shot her twice in the lower body, and that police eventually shot and wounded him. KOMO says the shootings were during the Quincy music festival, that he took hallucinogenic mushrooms, fatally shot the two women he did not know as they passed his campsite, shot a bystander in the shoulder, later attacked his girlfriend as she called 911 and then shot her twice in the lower body, and that Moses Lake police shot and injured him and booked him into the Grant County Jail. Quincy, on KOMO, and near George, on KIRO 7, are not the same place name. Moses Lake police, on KOMO, and police, on KING 5 and KIRO 7, are not the same agency line. Stars and Stripes says the festival was at Washington's Columbia River Gorge, that he shot multiple rounds at Escamilla and Ruiz, passersby he did not know, that he struck another person as his girlfriend attempted to stop him and dialed 911, then struck his girlfriend before shooting her twice in the lower body, and that Grant County Sheriff's deputies ended the assault by shooting him. It says he was initially hospitalized and remained jailed until sentencing on Friday. Sheriff's deputies, on Stars and Stripes, and Moses Lake police, on KOMO, are not the same agency. Hospitalized, on Stars and Stripes, is not on the KING 5 page or the KOMO page. Struck her and then shot her, on Stars and Stripes, and shot her twice after she dialed 911, on The Seattle Times, are not the same order. The Seattle Times says the families of Escamilla and Ruiz filed a wrongful-death lawsuit against Live Nation in April 2024 and reached a settlement in May 2026. KIRO 7 says the families filed that lawsuit in 2024 and describes an allegation that the company failed to enforce policies on drugs and weapons. A settlement in May 2026, on The Seattle Times, is not on the KIRO 7 page fetched here. The quotation from Capt. Stewart Miller, that the sentence reflects the seriousness of the conduct and is a step towards accountability, is on The Seattle Times, KIRO 7 and Stars and Stripes. NBC Right Now calls him prosecutor, Sixth Circuit, Army Office of Special Trial Counsel. Sixth Circuit is that page. It is not on The Seattle Times. The girlfriend is not named. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
