Life in prison seems extreme. Im going to randomly guess sentencing will be 25 years and he'll be out in 15.

It's a federal case, so that's not possible. He must serve at least 85% of the final sentence.

It will depend if the convictions are served concurrently or consecutively. You're right about the 85% rule for federal convictions though.

I beleive the default for Federal convictions imposed at the same time are concurrently unless the statue or judge specifically asks otherwise.
