Reply to "Father forgives killer of his son in court..."

This is the awe-inspiring moment that the father of a murder victim hugged his son's killer in court after bringing the judge to tears by forgiving the young man. 

Trey Relford, 24, was sentenced to 31 years in prison on Tuesday in connection to the April 19, 2015 murder of Salahuddin Jitmoud, who was stabbed to death and robbed while delivering a pizza in Lexington, Kentucky.  

During the sentencing hearing on Tuesday, Jitmoud's father, Dr. Abdul-Munim Sombat Jitmoud remembered his son as a gentle, generous, and shy young man who had an interest in rapping, writing and producing. 

Dr. Jitmoud said that his son had just 'one more delivery' to make the night he was murdered, making his death all the more tragic. 

At the end of his speech, he shocked the court when he turned to his son's killer and said he doesn't blame him for what happened. 

'I'm angry at the devil who misguided you to do such a crime,' he said.
