  • A court in the western German state of Rhineland-Palatinate sentenced a 50-year-old man on Tuesday to life imprisonment over the killing of a gas station worker.
  • This time, he was wearing a mask but he took it off and the two men started another argument.
  • The killing sparked concerns about the radicalization of COVID-deniers and so-called lateral thinkers as it was welcomed in right-wing extremist chats and forums.
