Buffalo shooter sentenced to life in prison for racist attack
Anger briefly turned physical at Payton Gendron's sentencing when he was charged by a man in the audience, who was quickly restrained. The proceeding resumed after about 10 minutes, with more emotional outpouring from people who lost loved ones or were themselves wounded in the attack.
"I hope you find it in your heart to apologize to these people, man. You did wrong for no reason," Jones said. Gendron wore bullet-resistant armor and a helmet equipped with a livestreaming camera as he carried out the May 14 attack with a semiautomatic rifle he purchased legally but then modified so he could load it with illegal high-capacity ammunition magazines.
"You don't know what we're going through," a man shouted as he was led away by court officers. For several minutes thereafter, family members hugged and calmed each other.
