Mohamed Sabry Suleiman, the Egyptian national who murdered 82-year-old Karen Diamond during an attack on a march for hostages in Colorado last year, has pleaded guilty to 12 charges in court, including nine counts of hate crimes. Suleiman admitted that he targeted the marchers in Boulder in June of last year because of their Jewish faith or Israeli origin, having disguised himself as a gardener before throwing Molotov cocktails at the participants. The attack also injured 12 other people, including a Holocaust survivor.
Suleiman was already sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole last May. The federal prosecution is now seeking an additional life sentence plus 50 years for the defendant.
