(Jewish Group) Jewish woman's killer not criminally liable because he was high on marijuana, French

(THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP! RESPECT!!)

A Muslim man who killed his Jewish neighbor in Paris while shouting about Allah is probably not criminally responsible for his actions because he had smoked marijuana beforehand, a French judge ruled.

The preliminary ruling in the trial of Kobili Traore for the 2017 murder of Sarah Halimi came Friday from a judge of inquiry — a magistrate that in the French justice system is tasked with deciding whether indicted defendants should in fact stand trial.

Francis Khalifat, the president of the CRIF umbrella group of French Jewish communities, called the ruling “unsurprising but hardly justifiable.” He said his group and others will appeal in hopes of bringing Traore to trial.

He could be hospitalized for treatment of his psychotic lapses or made to attend a drug rehabilitation program, or he could be released.

3. Since when is voluntary intoxication a defense?

Under the law of every Western nation, if you voluntarily get intoxicated, you are liable for your actions.

Don't be fooled: the reason the Muslim man gets away with murder is he is Muslim and his victim was Jewish.
