CLEAN: Life sentence in anti-Semitic murder case that shocked France

A French court sentenced the leader of a Paris gang called The Barbarians to life in prison for an anti-Semitic murder that shocked France with its brutality. Youssouf Fofana admitted in court to the kidnap, torture and murder of a young Jewish man in 2006. Fofana's life sentence comes with a mandatory 22 years to serve. The killing of 23-year-old Ilan Halimi stirred debate on anti-Semitism in France after police at the outset refused to consider the kidnapping as a hate crime. (Footage by AFPTV via Getty Images)
