Stephen Moller, who killed 20-year-old Sean Kennedy, will serve three years for involuntary manslaughter.
Moller used anti-gay slurs as he attacked Kennedy — pushing the young gay man to the ground, leading to the head trauma that killed him.
The defense attorney said after the hearing that Moller “didn’t know Sean was gay.”
We’re sure he probably didn’t. But it would certainly seem that he assumed Sean was gay. Hence the anti-gay comments as he hit Sean and the circumstances that lead to the attack which sound a little like gay panic.
