South Korea's Supreme Court on Thursday upheld a life sentence for Myeong Jae-wan, a teacher convicted of killing a 7-year-old student at a school in Daejeon last year. The court rejected her claim of mental impairment, citing the premeditated nature of the crime. Prosecutors had sought the death penalty, but the ruling also confirmed a 30-year electronic monitoring order.
