(Iowa City, IA) -- An Iowa City man has been sentenced to up to 50 years in prison after being convicted on one count of first-degree arson and five counts of first-degree attempted murder. 34-year-old Ishmael Carter will have to serve a minimum of 30 years behind bars before he's eligible for parole. Carter was sentenced Friday after a request for a new trial was thrown out by the judge.
