The United States handed down a life sentence to 22-year-old Aaron Long, who carried out shootings in massage parlors in March.
Eight people of Asian descent died at his hands.
As foreign websites write, the court sentenced the young man to four life sentences without parole.
Long, who carried out the shootings at three massage parlors staffed primarily by people of Asian descent, has confessed to four murders.
The American still faces the death penalty, as the verdict in the other four murders has not yet been rendered.
It is worth noting that the killings occurred against the backdrop of increased attacks on people of Asian descent in the United States since the start of the pandemic.
However, the American said that he did not hold racist views. He attacked the salon workers because he suffered from a sex addiction and saw massage parlors as a temptation that he needed to get rid of.
