On Friday, an American jury sentenced a man from the state of Illinois to 53 years of prison for the murder of an American Palestinian child.
The accused was found guilty of the crime and admitted that in 2019 he shot a 17-year-old youth. During the investigation, it was revealed that the crime was racially motivated due to the ethnic background of the victim.
After the verdict was announced, the prosecutor emphasized the significance of this decision for ensuring justice and upholding the law. The defense attorney stated that an appeal would be filed against the court's decision.
