Israeli Court Sentences U.S. Tourist's Palestinian Killer to Life in Prison
(AP-Washington Post) An Israeli court on Thursday sentenced West Bank resident Kifah Ghneimat to life in prison in the stabbing death of an American woman, Kristine Luken, 44, last December in a forest near Jerusalem. Prosecutors say Luken's assailants thought the Christian missionary was Jewish. The court said in its ruling that words could not express the "wickedness and cruelty of the accused."
