SANTA ANA — One of four men accused of plotting terrorist attacks on Jewish and military targets in California has been sentenced to 16 years in federal prison.

Kevin James, 32, was sentenced Friday in Santa Ana. He pleaded guilty in 2007 to conspiracy to wage war against the U.S.

The U.S. attorney’s office said James formed an Islamic terrorist group while in state prison in 1997.

     Prosecutors said two recruits later held up a dozen gas stations to raise money for attacks on targets that included Los Angeles International Airport, the Israeli Consulate, military bases and Army recruiting centers. They were sentenced last year to 22 and more than 121/2 years in prison.

The fourth man is in a mental facility.

None of the attacks took place
