Overview
- Sendric S., 25, was sentenced Friday to 14 years in prison plus TBS, a Dutch measure with mandatory psychiatric care, for three murders in IJsselmonde and a June 2024 stabbing.
- The court said he had schizophrenia and psychotic disorders worsened by cannabis use, yet he still had room to make choices, which warranted a prison term alongside treatment.
- He shot three men aged 63, 58 and 81 on Reyerdijk, Roelantpad and Bommelerwaard between late December 2024 and January 2, 2025.
- Police traced a gun he bought via Snapchat the day before the first killing, and the supplier and camera footage helped identify him.
- Relatives called the prison term too low, the defense is weighing appeal, and TBS can continue after release based on doctors’ risk assessments.
