Families Confront New Zealand Mosque Shooter At Sentencing

“You killed your own humanity, and I don’t think the world will forgive you for your horrible crime,” said a tearful Maysoon Salama, the mother of 33-year-old Atta Elayyan, who was killed in March 2019 attacks. “You thought you can break us. You failed miserably.”

The gunman, 29-year-old Australian Brenton Harrison Tarrant, pleaded guilty in March to 51 counts of murder, 40 counts of attempted murder and one count of terrorism – the first terrorism conviction in New Zealand’s history.

Tarrant could become the first person in New Zealand to be sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole, the toughest sentence available.
