OLATHE, Kan. (AP) — A Missouri man convicted of fatally shooting three people at Jewish sites in Kansas has been sentenced to death.

A jury convicted Frazier Glenn Miller Jr. in August of one count of capital murder, three counts of attempted murder, and assault and weapons charges. The same jury recommended that Miller be sentenced to death.

On Tuesday, Judge Thomas Kelly Ryan followed that recommendation and ordered the death penalty.

Miller is an avowed anti-Semite who admitted that he shot the three in April 2014 because he wanted to kill Jews before he died. He has chronic emphysema and has said he doesn’t think he has long to live. All of his victims were Christians.
