LOS ANGELES The former Pacific Harbor Line engineer who intentionally derailed his train at the Port of Los Angeles in 2020 was sentenced this week to three years in prison, the Los Angeles Times reports.

Eduardo Moreno, 46, had pleaded guilty in Decmeber to committing a terrorist attack and other violence against railroad carriers and mass transportation systems for the March 31, 2020, incident when he ran his train off the track at high speed.

At the time of his arrest, Moreno told police he had acted because he believed the U.S. hospital ship Mercy, docked in the harbor at the time, was part of a government conspiracy and wanted to bring attention to the situation.
