The 89-year-old man accused of a deadly shooting at Washington's Holocaust museum died Wednesday in a prison hospital.

The elderly suspect had been awaiting trial for the killing of security guard Stephen T. Johns at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum on June 10. Von Brunn had been wounded by return fire but survived.

His eartly account has been permanently closed.
Let’s hear it for government run healthcare!
It’s a terrible thing to fall into the Hands of the G-d of Israel, isn’t it, Mr. Von Brunn?
Good riddance.
