Shots fired at synagogue: prison sentence for 37-year-old from Bochum

title: Sentencing for Bochum Synagogue Attacker: Three Years and Ten Months in Prison

A Bochum local, aged 37, received a prison sentence of three years and ten months this week in connection to shots fired at a synagogue. The district court handed down the sentence for the synagogue attack and other arson attacks. Although the court could not definitively tie the man's actions to a right-wing extremist attitude due to the synagogue attack, they acknowledged his fascination with the Nazi era[2].

The DNA traces found on two projectiles discovered at the crime scene helped convict the individual for various offenses[3]. The judicial processes against the Bochum synagogue attacker's actions are now final, as both the public prosecutor's office and defense waived their right to appeal[4].
