The white supremacist who killed 51 worshippers in an attack on two mosques in New Zealand was sentenced Thursday to life in prison without parole.
Christchurch High Court Justice Cameron Mander said Brenton Tarrant had shown no remorse, and that no amount of time in prison would be enough to hold him to account “for the harm you have done.”
It marks the first time a court in New Zealand has sentenced a person to a life sentence without parole.
On March 15, 2019, the 29-year-old opened fire at the Al Noor Mosque in Christchurch, NZ., armed with military-style semi-automatic guns. He killed 44 people at the mosque, including a three-year-old boy, before attacking a second mosque in the suburb of Linwood. Seven people were killed in that attack.
The attack led to a ban on firearms in New Zealand and a campaign against hate content by Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern.
Survivors and victims’ families celebrated outside the court as Tarrant was sentenced on Thursday. One of those in attendance said though the “loss is really big,” the judgment would help to “make us move on.”
