KC Shooter found guilty of capital murder
Published August 31, 2015
(JTA) — A jury found guilty of capital murder the white supremacist who killed three people outside two Jewish facilities in a suburb of Kansas City.
The Johnson County, Kan. jury took less than two hours to arrive at its determination in the trial of Frazier Glenn Miller, also known as Frazier Glenn Cross, Monday, the Kansas City Star reported.
The trial now enters its death penalty phase.
“I believe the fat lady just sang,” Miller, 74, said when the verdict was delivered.
Miller was convicted of three counts of first degree murder in the deaths of Reat Underwood, 14, and Underwood’s grandfather, 69-year-old William Corporon, outside the the JCC of Kansas City in Overland Park, Kan., as well as Terri LaManno, 53, outside the Village Shalom assisted-living facility in April of 2014. None was Jewish, but Miller assumed they were Jewish when he shot them.
Miller, leading his own defense, said last week he was trying to “defend my people against genocide.”
Claiming that Jews have committed genocide against white people and that they control both the media and Wall Street, Miller said, “I had no criminal intent, I had a patriotic intent to stop genocide against my people.”
“I hate Jews,” Miller said. “They are the ones who destroy us.”
The Star reported that Miller was also found guilty of aggravated assault for pointing a shotgun at a woman and asking if she was Jewish and of firing into the JCC.
