BREAKING: Payton Gendron, a white supremacist who killed 10 black people at a Buffalo supermarket, was sentenced to life in prison without parole.
It resumed after about 10 minutes, with more emotional testimony from people who talked about losing loved ones in the attack.
Gendron, 19, 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.
Some, like Massey Mapps, angrily condemned him; others quoted from the Bible or said they were praying for him. Several condemned him for his deliberate attack on a Black community far from his nearly all-white hometown. Christopher Braden, a Tops Friendly Market employee who was shot in the leg, said he was haunted by seeing the victims where they lay as he was carried out of the store.At one point, Gendron began crying himself.
