Rex Crofton Faces Federal Charges for Synagogue Attacks

A 25-year-old man, Rex Crofton, is locked up facing federal charges after allegedly smashing synagogue and Jewish community center doors with a metal bar—and sending chilling text messages threatening to kill Jews. His family says his antisemitism has worsened over the past year, including physical threats and past violence. Police found weapons, including a crowbar likely used in the attacks, and a defaced Ukrainian flag with a swastika at his home. He’s also been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and multiple personality disorder, and his family previously avoided law enforcement fearing it would escalate his behavior. If convicted, he could face up to three years in federal prison. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
