The Jerusalem Disctrict Court ruled two consecutive life sentences for Daniel Maoz who was convicted of murdering his parents. He was sentenced to additional five years in prison for destroying evidence.

    Daniel Maoz, 29, wanted money from his inheritance in order to pay heavy gambling debts, the Jerusalem District Court found. He was sentenced to life imprisonment for the 2011 murders.

    The case presented an unusual challenge to the prosecution: DNA evidence linking Maoz to the killings was found at the murder scene, his parents’ apartment, and he tried to explain that away by accusing his identical twin brother of the crime.

    In its decision, the court cited other physical evidence and an examination of the defendant’s computer to refute that.

    The incriminating Internet searches also included “can soap clean DNA from a knife?” and “murder for inheritance”, a transcript of the ruling showed.

    Maoz said he made the searches out of “academic curiosity”.

    That beard took time to grow, but the fact that he used the internet leads to questions as to his status as a frum Yid.

    In a case such as this, I lament the fact that Eretz Yisrael does not have capital punishment!!

    If as the comments say, he did not look religious when he committed the crimes, and apparently he became frum while in Jail, then I blame the writer of the article and VIN, for not disclosing that, and causing chilul Hashem by the picture posted.

    to #’s 2,4,20,22 Interesting, 2 years in jail and they ‘guy’ now has a beard ,tzizis and a yarmulke. For all the people saying how can a religious person do this, he was not religious when he killed his parents
