A federal judge sentences a man to 10 years in prison in connection with a plot to kill an Iranian American writer, according to multiple reports. The defendant, described as a former truck and bus driver, was charged by federal authorities over the alleged assassination scheme. Authorities say the Iranian American writer was targeted for death by the Iranian government, and the case is handled in federal court. CBS News and the Winnipeg Free Press report that the sentence is 10 years, imposed by a federal judge on Wednesday. The Washington Times similarly reports the same sentence length and describes the defendant in the same terms, adding that authorities connected the plot to the writer’s alleged targeting by Iran. The reporting does not include additional details on the plot’s planning, evidence presented at sentencing, or whether the defendant appeals. Overall, the sources agree on the core outcome: the defendant receives a 10-year federal prison sentence for involvement in a plot to assassinate the Iranian American writer.
