The man who set off smoke bombs on a crowded New York subway train before shooting 10 people in April 2022 was due to be sentenced in a Brooklyn courtroom on Thursday, after he pleaded guilty to terrorism and weapons charges earlier this year.
Frank James, 64, could face life in prison for committing one of the most violent attacks ever seen on the New York City transit system.
"I got on the subway train that was carrying people," James told the courtroom. "While I was on the train, I started shooting a firearm." He said he did not plan to kill anyone, intending only "serious bodily harm," and that he would make "a complete statement expressing my remorse" at his sentencing hearing.
