The police in Greece searches for the murderer of a professor of the University of California, Berkeley, who was shot in Athens on July 4, while visiting his children and participating in a custody procedure.

detaljer om hændelsen

Przemyslaw Jeziorski, 43, var økonom og professor i marketing ved Haas School of Business of UC Berkeley. Han blev ramt flere gange i et boligområde i Athen's forstad Agia Paraskevi og døde på stedet, rapporterede myndighederne.

A masked perpetrator "approached the victim on foot and opened the fire at around 4:15 p.m.", with Jeziorski being hit in the neck and breast, the police spokeswoman Konstantina Dimoglidou said. Syv ærmer på en 9 mm brandriffel blev fundet på scenen.

undersøgelse og mistænksom

En mordundersøgelse er i gang. Since the suspect is still at large for more than a week after the incident, the friends and family of Jeziorski ask the police to intensify their efforts. Hændelsen fandt sted i nærheden af huset til Jeziorskis eks-kone, et dag efter at han havde deltaget i en forvaringsforhandling.

A high -ranking police representative who wanted to remain anonymous because he was not authorized to speak publicly about the case, informed CNN that "all scenarios, including close family members, are examined". Der var dog ingen yderligere detaljer om emnet.

Politiets talsmand sagde, at mordet havde "tegn på et ordremord", og det er grunden til, at forbindelser til organiseret kriminalitet også blev undersøgt. Derudover oplyste politiet, at Jeziorski ikke havde nogen kriminel fortegnelse i Grækenland.

Øjenvidner rapporterede en maskeret mand i sort, der nærmede sig offeret til fods. Et vidne fortalte de lokale medier, at hun hørte om seks skud og så, hvordan gerningsmanden fortsatte fra forbrydelsesstedet.

familieliv og virkningerne

The family of Jeziorski collects money to attribute its remains to his homeland in Poland and to receive legal support in Greece, "to take legal action and support the ongoing investigations."

"Our family is destroyed and we do everything to ensure that justice is produced," wrote his brother łukasz Jeziorski on the online fundraiser.

påskønnelse og arv

The UC Berkeley said in a statement that Jeziorski had "a passion for teaching" and had trained over 1,500 master and doctoral students in data analysis during his 13 years at the faculty. Venner og kolleger beskrev ham som "en vidunderlig person, ven og kollega", der var "usædvanligt talentfuld og hårdtarbejdende".

"I am deeply affected by the tragic and sudden news about the death of Professor Przemyslaw Jeziorski, an estimated member of our marketing faculty and the Haas community," said Jenny Chatman, dean of the business school of UC Berkeley, in the explanation. "While the authorities examine what has happened, our focus is on offering our community in this difficult phase. My condolences apply to Przemek's family and his relatives. We will miss it."

The highly acclaimed economist developed a popular MBA course for marketing analysis and "became a leading expert for quantitative marketing strategies, industrial organization and the economy of digital markets," said the University of Berkeley.

his research on livelihood security entrepreneurs and financial inclusion led him around the world, with a colleague describing him as "actually adventurous".

"He was a loving father of two small children and always ready to help if someone needed support," said Berkeley professor Zsolt Katona in the opinion. "He had a great influence on the marketing field, not only through his research, but also through his energetic presence and optimism, paired with a healthy level of skepticism."

Before working at Berkeley University, Jeziorski worked as an assistant professor for economics at John's Hopkins University and as a guest scientist at Microsoft. He achieved his doctorate in economic analysis at Stanford University and acquired master qualifications at the University of Arizona and the Warsaw School of Economics in Poland.

Jeziorski blev udgivet i flere anerkendte videnskabelige magasiner, herunder American Economic Journal og Rand Journal of Economics. Han var også medstifter af en opstart kaldet KeyBee, en platform til styring af kortvarige lejeboliger.
