A prosecutor says the man who killed eight people on a Manhattan bike path five years ago in a bid to impress a terrorist group was happy with himself when he met FBI agents later that day.
In this courtroom sketch, assistant US Attorney Jason Richmond gives the government summations in Manhattan federal court, Tuesday, Jan. 24, 2023, in New York, while holding up a knife that defendant Sayfullo Saipov possessed during his attack. Closing arguments were given in the trial where Saipov faces terrorism charges for killing eight people and seriously injuring a dozen others in an attack on a New York City bicycle path five years ago.
Richman urged jurors to convict Saipov of all charges in a case that could result in the death penalty. If the jury returns a guilty verdict on all charges after starting deliberations Wednesday, a penalty phase of the trial will begin a week later. Unless jurors unanimously choose death, the sentence would be life in prison.
“He targeted his victims without mercy,” Richman said. That night, the prosecutor added, “he smiled. He was proud. He was happy with what he had done that day. He was happy about the terrorist attack ... He had done what he came to do."
