Murderer of Sarah Halimi Will Avoid Criminal Trial, French Jewish Defense Group Says
(Algemeiner) Ben Cohen - A leading French Jewish organization said on Friday that it had "learned with consternation" that the man accused of murdering Jewish pensioner Sarah Halimi in April 2017 will not face a criminal trial. A statement, carried by the Jewish publication Alliance, said that the investigating magistrate in the Halimi case had concluded that the murderer, Kobili Traore, was heavily intoxicated on marijuana when he committed the killing, and mentally unfit to stand trial.
