An appeals court in Italy has upheld the convictions of two American men in the 2019 killing of an Italian police officer during a drug deal gone wrong in Rome, but reduced their sentences.
Lee Elder Finnegan and Gabriele Natale-Hjorth were convicted in a new trial after Italy’s high court threw out their convictions in March. After the convictions were upheld in the new trial, Finnegan was sentenced to 15 years and two months in prison while Natale-Hjorth was sentenced to 11 years and four months, along with an $863 fine.
