The widow and mother of the late Ari Fuld, murdered by a terrorist at the Gush Etzion junction, arrived at the courtroom for pleadings regarding sentencing of the terrorist.

"It’s been a year and nine months since Ari’s murder, and we’re just hoping for a little bit of justice today," Miriam Fuld, Ari's widow told Arutz Sheva.

"Justice should be done to show citizens of the state of Israel that the state of Israel has their back, will protect them no matter what.

"Hopefully we’re coming towards the end already now.

"Justice, that’s what he hope for."

Ari's mother, Mary, said, "There’s one message I want to say, who we’re going to face in a few moments. I want them to be aware of the repercussions of their decision.

"They should very clearly know that what they decide will not stay in the courtroom, but will reverberate around the world, as Ari influenced people around the world, and their decision will either bring honor or dishonor to the state of Israel."
