Rotterdam medical student given life sentence for killing neighbors, professor
NL TimesErasmus University medical student Fouad L. was found guilty on Friday for the premeditated murders of his neighbor, her daughter, and his professor in a crime spree that terrified Rotterdam on September 28, 2023. While acknowledging that L. has a personality disorder that contributed to the murders, the judges handed L. a life sentence with almost no chance of parole, exceeding the prosecutor's recommendation of 30 years and mandatory psychiatric institutionalization for an indefinite period. L. earlier told the court that, out of anger and frustration that he would not receive his medical diploma, he developed “a very terrible plan” to get revenge. It scares me to death.” In issuing a life sentence, the court was not allowed to add a period of mandatory institutionalization in a TBS psychiatric facility.
