Sheinbein, 19, hands behind his back, did not react as the ver dict was read two years after he fled to Israel and successfully sought refuge from extradition, enraging Maryland authorities and briefly threatening U.S. aid to the Jewish state. The sentence by Judge Uri Goren, residing over a panel of three judges at Tel Aviv District Court, was not a surprise; lawyers for Sheinbein and the Israeli pros ecution had arrived at the plea bar gain in August. Sheinbein would be eligible for parole after two-thirds of his sen tence is served. He also may be el igible for 24-hour furloughs in as soon as four years. The sentence was backdated to Sheinbein’s ar raignment in 1997. Under Maryland law, Shein bein could have drawn a life-sen tence without parole. Until now, Israeli minors convicted of mur der have never received more than a 20-year sentence. “[Such] shocking acts of desecration... show us to what depths the defendant sank... at the timer — Judge Uri Goren Tel Aviv District Court Sheinbein confessed in Septem ber to choking 19-year-old Alfred Tello Jr. with a rope and hitting him several times with a! actions that caused hisi Sheinbein, whowasl/ail then dismembered thete an electric saw and bum] Aaron Needle, a I thorities also believe was: in the murder, killec in detention in Mar Such “shockingactsoi: tion to the deceased’ske| that are too horrendoustca ... show us to whatdeptlsj fendant sank and howinlj became at the time,''Corel in his sentencing.
