Naveed Haq was sentenced to life in prison earlier this morning for shooting six women—killing one of them—during a rampage at the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle building in 2006.

From the Seattle Times:

Addressing the court for the first time, Haq blamed the shootings on mental illness and lack of treatment.

"I understand you are angry," said Haq, 34. "The tragedy wouldn't have occurred if it wasn't for bad medical care and mental illness."

Haq apologized for the attack "from the depth of my being."

"I am not a man filled with hate," said the Tri-Cities man. "That Naveed Haq at the Federation that July day was not the real Naveed Haq."
