Grafton Thomas, 37, also faces multiple charges of assault, attempted assault and burglary
The Canadian Press
The indictment also charges Grafton Thomas, 37, with three counts of assault, three counts of attempted assault and two counts of burglary stemming from the Dec. 28 machete attack, Rockland County District Attorney Thomas Walsh announced at a brief news conference. But the sixth attempted-murder count indicates investigators have revised their tally of victims, the most gravely injured of whom is reported to be a 72-year-old man who suffered machete blows to his head, leaving him partially paralyzed, comatose and breathing on a respirator.
Federal prosecutors cited journals they seized from the suspect’s home containing references to Adolf Hitler, “Nazi culture” and the Black Hebrew Israelites movement, identified by experts in extremism as an anti-Jewish hate group.
