After yesterday, 37-year-old Grafton Thomas refused to plead guilty to five counts of attempted murder, burglary, and hate crimes in general, today New York State's Southern District Prosecutors have been indicted for hate crimes on religious grounds, due to the stabbing incident in Monsey, New York. Grafton stabbed five people on antisemitic grounds at a Chanukah party in a multi-community home. At the same time, state authorities have revealed new information about the existence of details that sharpen Grafton's motive.

Authorities in the United States have revealed new details from Grafton's investigation, which, as mentioned above, was suspected of carrying out the brutal assault with an anti-Semitic motive. The bodies in charge of the investigation have released diaries and drawings containing Grafton's house containing antisemitic drawings and inscriptions. On one page of a diary discovered in his apartment, a Star of David is seen, with a swastika and captions saying "Nazi culture" and "Adolf Hitler".

Law enforcement officials revealed that the stabbing documents revealed questions such as: "Why do people mourn anti-Semitism when there is genocide?" In addition, Grafton's cellphone internet searches included repeated trials of various issues that concerned him, including "Why Hitler Hated Jews," "Jewish Synagogues in the Environment," and "Prominent Companies Established by Jews in America."
Remember, Thomas committed the violent assault with a scarf covering his face, using a machete, to stab and injure five people, one of them in serious condition - an elderly man who could not escape. The 37-year-old spokesman, who in the meantime was reinforced by anti-Semitic motives, was arrested about two hours after the initial report of the stabbing attack in New York's Harlem.

Wave of anti-Semitism in the United States
Last weekend, a 30-year-old African American woman slapped three women in Brooklyn and, in her investigation, admitted the background to the incident was anti-Semitic. Earlier this month, two members of the Hebrew black community entered the kosher grocery store in New Jersey in a shootout with the New Jersey Police Department. Two shooters and a police officer were killed in the incident and three people in the supermarket. After the incident, the two anti-Semitic correspondences were discovered.
