Life sentences? (4)
I believe the answer is:
obit
<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">life sentences?</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for obit that I've seen before include "Write-up of a death" , "Short biography of someone who has died (abbr)" , "Death notice abbreviated" , "Short report of perishing" , "Death notice in paper" .)
