Migrant Who Killed Italian for Being ‘White’ and ‘Happy’ Gets 30 Years in Prison
Breitbart ^ | 7-6-2020 | Chris Tomlinson

Moroccan-born Said Mechaout has been sentenced to a maximum 30 years behind bars over a year after he murdered Italian man Stefano Leo in Turin because he was “white” and “happy”.

The murder took place on February 23rd on the banks of the river Po in Turin but it wasn’t until around a month later that 27-year-old Mechaout, a naturalised Italian citizen born in Morocco, confessed to the killing.

Italian prosecutors Ciro Santoriello and Enzo Bucarelli both pushed for the maximum sentence of 30 years in the case after remarking that Mechaout showed little to no remorse following the murder.

Mariagrazia Chiri, the mother of Stefano Leo, was also present at the sentencing and commented “We have always been confident. And the sentence gives us that reason. Justice has run its course,” Italian newspaper Corriere Della Sera reports.

Basilio Foti, the lawyer for Mechaout, said that he expected the sentenced to be reduced on appeal, however, noting that Mechaout came forward himself and confessed to the crime.

The confession, which took place over a month after the murder, saw the Moroccan migrant explain to the police that he killed Leo simply because he was white looked “happy”.

“I hit a white, based on the obvious fact that a young Italian would have caused a sensation,” he allegedly told police.

“I looked at him and I was sure he was Italian. I wanted to kill a guy like me, take away all the promises he had, children, remove him from his friends and relatives.”

The case is just one of several brutal murders in Italy in which migrants have been the preparators.

Turn the clock back 2000 years and wonder what would have happened to this POS. He would have welcomed his death.

“I looked at him and I was sure he was Italian. I wanted to kill a guy like me, take away all the promises he had, children, remove him from his friends and relatives.”

If there was ever a crime of hate, this would be next to it in the dictionary. This is a crime of pure evil having nothing to do with civilized man. I’ve seen animals euthanized for less than this. But this creature doesn’t deserve death. He deserves to have everything taken away, his promises, his children, remove him from everything he cares about for the remainder of his life. And it should happen to everyone that is like him. And the crime, he’s happy he murdered someone. He can face his god every day when it is all he has left. And with a little luck, he will get the opportunity after years of exclusion and not the death he wishes. He can be the example for other animals when he sits in a cell with nothing to do but die, hopefully for years. And if he goes insane, pad him, keep him there, and toss in a razor. He gets no virgins that way.

Only 30 years? The creep will be out in 15 looking for Columbus statues to dump in River Po.

The 2008 European Values Study (EVS) found that 42% of respondents in Italy said that the death penalty can never be justified, while only 58% said it can always be justified.

This poll needs to be taken from respondents who have lost loved one to murderers. I guarantee the numbers would be considerably different.

Liberals are quick to be lienient toward violent criminals until those criminals impact them personally - then it's a different story.

Genocide, in other words. Obliterate his genetics from the Earth.

And we are still allowing “immigrants” into our country?

This is what they plan for us.
