Jessica Kumala Wongso, center, is surrounded by her lawyers after her sentence at a courtroom of Central Jakarta District Court in Jakarta, Indonesia, Thursday, Oct. 27, 2016. The Central Jakarta District Court found Jessica Kumala Wongso, 28, guilty of murdering Wayan Mirna Salihin at an upmarket Jakarta cafe in January. Salihin collapsed and died after sipping iced coffee at the cafe while Wongso was present. “Jessica Kumala Wongso has been legally and convincingly proven guilty of committing premeditated murder,” said presiding judge Kisworo, who uses a single name, in reading the 377-page verdict over about four hours. The panel of judges concluded that Wongso plotted the murder and showed no regret for what it called a “vile and sadistic” crime.
