The French Jewish community on Wednesday expressed anger over the court’s decision regarding the murder of Sarah Halimi HY”D, stating the defendant, a Muslim who was screaming Allah Akbar, was not responsible for his actions because he was smoking cannabis. It is pointed out that at the time of the murder, the defendant, Kobili Traore, shouted “Allah Akbar” as well.
Francis Khalifat, the President of the CRIF umbrella group of French Jewish communities, commented the ruling was “unsurprising but hardly justifiable.” The community plans to appeal the case in hope of receiving true justice in the case, which is viewed as a hate crime, motivated by the victim being Jewish.
On April 5, 2017, just after 4:30AM, a Muslim neighbor broke into the home of Sarah Halimi, and stabbed her. She escaped to the balcony, the neighbor followed her and while she was pleading for her life, dragged her and threw her over the edge of the balcony to her death.
During the ordeal the neighbor was screaming “Allah Akbar.” Halimi was a chareidi doctor and was 66 years old when she was murdered.
Traore had called Halimi’s daughter “dirty Jewess” two years before killing the mother, the daughter has said.

Midos Sedom!
France has become the 58th Muslim country.
So in France one can smoke weed and then go out and kill whoever he or she wants! Insane!
SO ALL THE FRENCH JEWS SHOULD SMOKE WEED AND GO OUT AND KILL FRENCH JUDGES.
“…was not responsible for his actions because he was smoking cannabis.” – that kind of contradicts medical science. I guess the judge is still living in the dark ages… or better yet, is clearly a raging anti-Semite!
To a56 let me correct you after you smoke weed you can kill a jew however if they killed a French anti Semite that would be a different matter
Judge is not responsible for this ruling due to stupidity.
Yet all these states are in the process of legalizing recreational marijuana? Seems these claims change at whim (from extreme to another) depending on whatever the establishment wants to push.
Weed does cause violence. Read Alex Berenson’s excellent book “Tell Your Children”.
But if the fire at Notre Dame had been set by someone on weed, she wouldn’t have dared exonerate such a villain.
