A federal judge sentenced Jaime Tran, 29, to 35 years in prison after he admitted to shooting two men as they left religious services.
The man who shot two Jewish men as they left religious services in West Los Angeles was sentenced to spend the next 35 years in a federal prison on Monday. Earlier this year, Jaime Tran, 30, admitted in a plea deal to shooting the men in the Pico-Robertson neighborhood last year. Tran stated in the agreement that he targeted the men because of their 'headgear.' Both of the men were wearing yarmulkes when Tran shot them.
He was walking to the crosswalk at Bedford and Pickford Streets when Tran drove up to him and started shooting. 'When I moved I heard boom, boom, boom,' he recalled. 'Three times.'A round struck Tieb's right arm, causing blood to pour down his bicep as he ran to a friend's home for help, with his yarmulkes still on. Both Tieb and the first victim survived.
