Teen girl charged with murder over San Diego mosque shooting livestream
–
Neutral summary
A 17-year-old North Carolina girl, Sarah Lindsey Santiago, has been indicted on charges of murder by aiding and abetting in connection with the May 18 attack on the Islamic Center of San Diego that killed three people. Prosecutors say she recorded and disseminated a livestream of the shooting and published the attackers’ manifesto. Forsyth County District Attorney Jim O’Neill said state charges were brought because in North Carolina the girl can be tried as an adult; she faces life in prison without parole if convicted, while federal charges could have resulted in a shorter sentence. The two shooters, 18-year-old Caleb Vasquez and 17-year-old Kane Clark, were also teenagers; the victims — security guard Amin Abdullah, 51, caretaker Mansour Kaziha, 78, and teacher’s husband Nadir Awad, 57 — were hailed as heroes for preventing further violence while 140 children were at the mosque’s school.
