Nolan Brewer jailed for three years after admitting hate crime against synagogue 'full of ethnic Jews.”
An Indianapolis man who holds Nazi beliefs and openly spoke of his admiration for Adolf Hitler has been jailed after admitting vandalizing synagogue grounds.
Prosecutors said the decision to attack the synagogue was not a “not a spur-of-the-moment childhood prank” and stemmed from Brewer identifying with Nazi and white supremacist ideologies. An eyewitness reportedly described how the pair decided against entering the synagogue after getting spooked by the security cameras and lights. The couple instead spray-painted the external walls and scorched the ground.
Announcing the sentence, U.S. Attorney Josh J. Minkler said: “Our nation was founded on the right of all people to practice their faith free of threats and violence.
