Israeli Court Convicts Two Israeli Jews in Murder of Palestinian

(Ha'aretz) Nir Hasson - The Jerusalem District Court on Monday convicted two Israeli Jewish minors in the murder of Palestinian youth Muhammad Abu Khdeir. The conviction of the main suspect, Yosef Haim Ben-David, 31, was suspended due to a last-minute psychiatric evaluation that claimed he was not responsible for his actions at the time of the murder. The three had confessed to the crime and reenacted it, and the court said that there is enough evidence to convict Ben-David. Abu Khdeir, 16, was abducted on July 2, 2014, from the Jerusalem Arab neighborhood of Shuafat and driven to the Jerusalem Forest, where he was beaten and burned alive by his kidnappers. Israel has officially recognized him as a victim of terror.
