Off duty means he will likely end up in front of a military court and they will ask three things: if he followed military procedure for opening live fire, if he felt there was a non-violent way to resolve the incident, and why he was there in the first place. He’ll get reprimanded, potentially sentenced for murder, and possibly discharged. More likely is he’ll deny guilt, make some claims and bring family as witnesses. In the end, he might even get away with less than a year in military prison.
The reality is that law enforcement forces are just closing their eyes when there is a crime committed against Palestinians and I can imagine that now the bias would be even higher, so most likely he will get away with this murder.
