A teen convicted of murdering a Navy veteran while out “hunting people” in a rival gang’s territory has launched an appeal to slash his sentence — because he is young. Dech Gach, from Sioux City, Iowa, was 15 when he heartlessly shot dead 59-year-old Larry Thompson on the stoop of his home in North Omaha, Nebraska, in March 2021. In March 2025, Gach was sentenced to 87 years in prison and won’t be eligible for parole until 2060.
