A man convicted of accosting Holocaust scholar Elie Wiesel in a San Francisco hotel will be released from jail but must undergo psychological treatment.
Eric Hunt was sentenced to two years in prison Monday, but a judge gave him credit for time served and good behavior.
The 24-year-old New Jersey man has been ordered to enter psychological treatment and pay a $1,000 fine. He also will be on 48 months of probation.
The 79-year-old Wiesel testified during the trial that he thought Hunt was trying to kidnap him when Hunt pulled him from a hotel elevator in February 2007.
Hunt was convicted of a felony count of false imprisonment with a hate crime allegation and misdemeanor counts of battery and elder abuse.
