Vermont man convicted of attempted murder in shooting of three Palestinian students
A jury rejected Jason Eaton’s insanity defense in the 2023 attack near the University of Vermont.
A Vermont jury convicted Jason Eaton of attempted murder for shooting three Palestinian college students who were walking near his home in November 2023, according to the Guardian.
The jury rejected an insanity defense that was based in part on Eaton’s claims that he had been acting on orders from US and Israeli intelligence services. The supplied report says Eaton, 51, faces the possibility of life in prison.
The excerpt does not provide the sentencing date or the full set of charges and verdicts. The conviction resolves the question of guilt on the attempted-murder counts described in the source, while punishment remains to be determined.
