Massachusetts Man Arrested for Trying to Blow Up 'Jewish' Nursing Home During Coronavirus Pandemic |
2020-04-17 |
[PJMedia] On Wednesday, federal agents arrested 36-year-old John Michael Rathbun for allegedly attempting to blow up a nursing home he thought was Jewish. Authorities claim they discovered his DNA on a failed explosive, NBC News reported. The attack came on April 3, as the coronavirus pandemic raged across America, acutely threatening the elderly and senior living homes. Rathbun was charged with two counts of attempted arson after local police found a 5-gallon plastic gasoline container with a burned paper placed in the nozzle, left outside an assisted living home on April 2. The paper appears to have been a Christian pamphlet. Investigators discovered a white supremacist organization on a social media platform in March attacking "the jew nursing home in longmeadow massachusetts," according to the complaint written by Special Agent Ryan McGonigle, assigned to the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force. The FBI did not identify Rathbun as the person who posted the threats. The person who posted the threats also said April 3 would be "jew killing day." The FBI claims Rathbun placed the incendiary device on the evening of April 2. The incendiary device was discovered outside of Ruth's House Assisted Living Residence on Converse Street in Longmeadow, Mass. Contrary to the white supremacists' claims, it is not a "jew nursing home," although it is operated by JGS Lifecare, which was founded by Jewish women in 1912. Hang him outside the home as a warning to others |
