A man accused of sharing antisemitic messages and threats online, including a digitally altered image of himself pointing an assault rifle at Jews praying, has been charged by federal prosecutors.
Corbin Kauffman, 30, of Pennsylvania, reportedly also shared racist and Islamophobic material, including calling for or depicting images of “the killing of Jewish people, black people and Muslim people”, according to a statement from the US Attorney’s office.
Mr Kauffman is accused of having used an alias, “KingShekels”, to send a message showing an image of a notebook page with a swastika, dripping blood, with the words “murder your local Juden”.
He reportedly also sprayed antisemitic graffiti at a public park, defaced a display case at a Chabad centre in Maryland with white supremacist and antisemitic stickers, and posted photos of the vandalism.
