According to Time<\/a>, David Wright plotted with his uncle, Ussamah Rahim, to behead blogger Pamela Gellar for her campaign against jihadists and her “draw Mohammad” contest. His uncle abandoned plans to behead the blogger and instead decided to go after \u201cthose boys in blue\u201d, a decision that cost him his life when he tried to assault two Boston police officers with a knife who shot him dead.<\/p>\n

In court yesterday, Wight’s lawyer asked for 16-years in prison for their client, Gellar asked for a life sentence, the judge gave him 28 years.<\/p>\n

Wright, who was more than 500 pounds when he was arrested, testified during the trial that he started sharing Islamic State propaganda because he was desperate for attention and an escape. But he said the plan to kill Geller was just \u201ctrash talk\u201d and claimed he never believed his uncle was serious about attacking police.<\/p>\n

The third man charged, Nicholas Rovinski, of Warwick, Rhode Island, pleaded guilty last year to conspiracy, testified against Wright and is scheduled to be sentenced Wednesday. Prosecutors are seeking 15 years behind bars.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Well, he got the attention he craved, so he’s got that going for him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
