Pablo Gomez Jr., a former UC Berkeley student and “queer alliance” activist convicted of a brutal 2017 stabbing murder, will spend his foreseeable future in a psychiatric facility instead of prison.

24-year-old Gomez was sentenced to 39 years to life, which will be served at a state mental hospital after the judge found Gomez not guilty because of insanity, reported The Mercury News.
