French Teens Convicted for Role in Teacher's Beheading

TL;DR Summary
A French juvenile court has convicted six teenagers for their involvement in the beheading of teacher Samuel Paty by an Islamic extremist in 2020. The court found five of the defendants guilty of staking out the teacher and identifying him for the attacker, while another defendant was found guilty of lying about the classroom debate, aggravating online anger against the teacher. The teenagers, all students at Paty's school, received brief or suspended prison terms and were required to stay in school or jobs with regular medical checkups. The trial for eight adults suspected of involvement in the killing is expected to take place next year.
