Court Reaches Verdict In Elie Wiesel Accosting Trial
POSTED: 4:06 pm PDT July 21, 2008
After nearly two days of deliberation, the jury found 24-year-old Eric Hunt guilty of false imprisonment, along with a special allegation the offense was a hate crime, for a Feb. 1, 2007 incident at the Argent Hotel in downtown San Francisco.
Hunt was also convicted of misdemeanor battery and misdemeanor elder abuse, but the jury found him not guilty of attempted kidnapping, stalking and false imprisonment of an elder, a separate false imprisonment charge.
Hunt's sentencing is scheduled for Aug. 18.
