I just heard on the TV that someone got life in prison plus 47 years. I never understood this. Life in prison is life in prison so what does this mean when they get additional time on top of life in prison?

In Indiana, life in prison meant 20 years. In other words you did 20 years before any possibility of parole. If they wanted you to die in prison you got life plus some years. So the parole board decided if you could get out.
