I pushed a Muslim off the train tracks because I hate Hindus and Muslims; ever since 2001 when they put down the Twin Towers I’ve been beating them up,” NYPD detectives quoted Menendez as saying.

She is now sentenced to 24 years

“It’s a very sad case,” state Supreme Court Judge Gregory Lasak said in sentencing Ms. Menendez Wednesday. “This was a particularly brutal homicide.” He added: “I can only imagine his final thoughts… That’s a horrible way to die.”
Assistant District Attorney Peter Lomp asked the judge to impose the maximum possible sentence of 25 years in prison. “It’s about as horrific a crime as I can recall in 22 years of prosecuting criminals,” he said.
