"Former Cornell Student Sentenced for Posting Online Threats Against Jewish Students On Campus"

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.




The defendant’s statements, from the criminal charges filed against him.

From a Justice Department press release Monday:

Patrick Dai, 22, formerly a junior at Cornell University and originally from Pittsford, New York, was sentenced today to 21 months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release and a special assessment in the amount of $100 for posting threats to kill or injure another person using interstate communications….

As part of his previously entered guilty plea, Dai admitted that, on Oct. 28 and 29, 2023, he posted threatening messages to the Cornell section of an online discussion forum, including posts that said “gonna shoot up 104 west” (a dining hall at Cornell University that caters predominantly to Kosher diets and is next to the Cornell Jewish Center that provides residential accommodations for students) and “gonna bomb jewish house.” In another post, Dai threatened to “stab” and “slit the throat” of any Jewish man he saw on campus, to rape and throw off a cliff any Jewish women he saw and to behead any Jewish babies. In that same post, Dai threatened to “bring an assault rifle to campus and shoot all you pig jews.”

Twenty-one months seems to me like a light sentence for public threats of multiple murder. But I’m not sure what the norm in such cases is; perhaps such sentences are common for such threats, at least for first offenders.
