A 20-year-old British tourist who prosecutors say caused a security scare at a Donald Trump campaign rally in Las Vegas by trying to wrestle a gun from a police officer was sentenced on Tuesday to a year and a day in prison. Michael Sandford, was sentenced by US District Judge James Mahan in Las Vegas after pleading guilty in September under a plea agreement with prosecutors to one count each of illegal weapon possession by an alien and disrupting the orderly conduct of government business or functions. A lawyer for Sandford, federal public defender Brenda Weksler, said she was 'happy with the result,' calling the sentence a 'fair disposition of the case given the unique circumstances.' When asked whether Sandford intended to harm Trump, Weksler said: 'Our client is not political at all.'
