Four people convicted of charges stemming from the kidnapping and torture of two New York college students have been sentenced to prison.

The two men and two women were convicted last month of kidnapping two male University of Rochester students in December 2015.

The victims, both from the Chicago area, were reported missing Dec. 5, 2015, hours after they were last seen near the university's campus. The incident ended the next day, when police determined they were being held in a house four miles away and sent in a SWAT team to rescue them.

Prosecutors say the victims, who were beaten, sexually assaulted and held against their will inside a Rochester house for 40 hours, were mistakenly targeted for retribution for a drug-related robbery. One of them was shot.

Lydell Strickland was sentenced to 155 years to life, according to prosecutors. David Alcaraz-Ubiles was sentenced to 15 years to run consecutively with a 15-year sentence he's serving for another crime.

Inalia Rolldan and Ruth Lora were sentenced to seven years in prison and five years of post-release supervision.

Five others charged in the case have taken plea deals.
