Samast, who was 17 at the time of the shooting, was sentenced by a juvenile court -- saving him from receiving life without parole, the sentence the court first handed down, and then reduced.
Samast je u vrijeme atentata imao 17 godina i osuđen je pred maloljetničkim sudom, koji je ublažio prvotno izrečenu kaznu doživotnog zatvora bez mogućnosti pomilovanja.
