Man Admits Murder of New Jersey College Student was Jihad
NEWARK, N.J. – A former Seattle resident who admitted killing four people on a self-proclaimed "jihad" to avenge U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East received a life sentence without parole Tuesday for the 2014 ambush of a college student sitting in his car at a traffic light in New Jersey.
Ali Muhammad Brown, 33, is expected to be extradited to Washington state to face charges in the three other killings.
On Tuesday, facing a courtroom packed with more than 100 friends and relatives of the victim, Brown initially apologized to the parents and then went off on a rambling monologue in which he repeatedly asked to be treated "as a human being, not a monster."
That didn't sway state Superior Court Judge Ronald Wigler, who called Brendan Tevlin's murder "one of the most heinous, horrific, brutal crimes I have presided over" in eight years on the bench.
Brown's actions also didn't change U.S. policy but only "brought devastation and despair to a family who never did a thing to you," Wigler told Brown.

Obviously he's insane. Everyone knows Mohammedanism is a religion of peace.
Yes.
What we need is MORE MUSLIMS to drown out all the Muslims who misunderstand Islam.
