Former Cornell student sentenced to 21 months in jail for threats against Jews
[JPost] A former Cornell University student who in April pleaded guilty to posting online threats, including of death and violence, against Jewish students on campus, was sentenced on Monday to 21 months in prison, the US Justice Department said.

Patrick Dai, 22, was charged late last year for making online threats against Jewish students at the Ivy League school in Ithaca, New York. His 21 months in prison will be followed by three years of supervised release, the Justice Department said in a statement.

US government officials and civil society advocates have warned about rising threats against American Jews, Muslims and Arabs since the eruption of the Israel-Gaza war in October last year.
Key quotes

"The defendant's threats terrorized the Cornell campus community for days and shattered the community's sense of safety," US Attorney Carla Freedman for the Northern District of New York said in a statement.

"Mr. Dai's actions serve as a disturbing reminder of the terrifying hatred our Jewish communities encounter simply because of their beliefs," FBI official Craig Tremaroli added.
Cornell Jewish students threatened on university forum.

As part of his guilty plea, Dai had admitted that on Oct. 28 and Oct. 29, he threatened to bomb, stab and rape Jews on the Cornell section of an online discussion forum.

Given, we are seeing any DOJ enforcement of anti-Semitic crimes. I am guessing they understand the O'Biden Regime appointment of Harris, is seriously in doubt, and they need to pretend to apply the law.

OBTW:
Cornell charges $68,380 per year for Master’s Degrees.
But the LSD's & Mindless Biden say You & I, as taxpayers.
Should forgive (pay) student loans for Racist 💩 like this.

#3 Hmmm, I was just wondering how many threats against white people there have been by a certain ethnic group that have gone unpunished (if not praised in some circles).

#5 wondering how many threats

UNC braces as anti-Israel group dubbed 'voice for Hamas' condones 'armed rebellion': 'By any means necessary'

I'm wondering why they aren't scooped up and broken, like the pretzels in the bottom of the bag.
