A former Marine Corps demolition expert who bombed one Manhattan abortion clinic and tried to bomb another was sentenced to seven years in prison and told U.S. District Judge Thomas Griesa he would heed Cardinal John O’Connor and not bomb again. Dennis John Malvasi, 37, surrendered in February following a televised plea by O’Connor, the Roman Catholic archbishop of New York. He had faced up to 30 years in jail and $750,000 in fines.
