French Teenagers Face Trial for Murder of Teacher Samuel Paty

Six French teenagers, aged between 13 and 15, are on trial for their alleged complicity in the murder of teacher Samuel Paty in 2020. The suspects are accused of slandering and pointing out the teacher to the killer, a Chechen refugee. If convicted, they face a maximum of 2.5 years in prison. The murder occurred after Paty showed cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad during a class on freedom of expression. Another trial is scheduled for next year involving eight adults accused of complicity in the murder, including the father of one of the teenagers on trial.

Iowa Teen Sentenced to Life for Killing Spanish Teacher

Willard Miller, a 17-year-old teenager, has been sentenced to life in prison with a mandatory minimum of 35 years for the murder of his Spanish teacher, Nohema Graber. Miller pleaded guilty to the crime, which occurred in 2021 when he and his classmate, Jeremy Goodale, beat Graber to death. Goodale, who also pleaded guilty, is set for sentencing next month. The sentencing hearing included video excerpts of interviews with the defendants and revealed new details about the murder. The judge emphasized that despite Miller's age, the circumstances of the crime did not warrant lenience and expressed that Miller was fortunate that Iowa law does not allow for life without parole for juveniles. Graber's family expressed their grief and held Miller responsible for the deaths of both Graber and her former husband, who died shortly before the sentencing.
