Wall, a 30-year-old freelance journalist, set out on the submarine on Aug. 10 to interview Madsen, the co-founder of a company that develops and builds manned spacecraft.

The judge said Madsen's crimes were committed in an especially "serious and brutal manner to a randomly chosen woman, who had accepted his offer to go on a trip in the submarine."
