A San Fernando Valley man who admitted to engaging in a 14-month campaign in which he intimidated a Jewish victim with violent, anti-Semitic rhetoric and threatened to \u201cexterminate\u201d Jews and Asian Americans was sentenced Monday to 43 months in federal prison.<\/span><\/p>\n

Andre Morrow Lackner, 35, of Northridge, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Dale S. Fischer after pleading guilty on Jan. 29 to one count of stalking. However, he has been in federal custody since December 2022.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHate and intolerance, including anti-Semitism, are both wrong and un-American,\u201d said U.S. Attorney Martin Estrada. \u201cOur nation is one of inclusion, not exclusion, and through this case we send a strong message that we will not tolerate attempts to divide us.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Krysti Hawkins, acting assistant director in charge of the FBI's Los Angeles field office, stressed that Monday's sentencing is proof of zero tolerance for hate-based criminal activity and the FBI's commitment to holding accountable those who seek to threaten or harm innocent victims.<\/span><\/p>\n

From June 2021 through October 2022, Lackner sent a series of abusive text messages to the victim. In them, Lackner directed a series of anti-Semitic comments at the victim. Examples included: \u201cHitler was right about you,\u201d \u201cI want to see all Jews exterminated from this earth,\u201d \u201cWould you like to celebrate the next synagogue shooting?\u201d and \u201cI will make sure to kill a Jew before I leave this Earth.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Lackner also texted the victim multiple racist statements against Asian Americans, including: \u201cWe need to start hating Asians more and \u2018wipe [Asians] off the planet.'\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The text messages Lackner sent to the victim placed her in reasonable fear of death and serious bodily injury to herself or one of her immediate family members, the California Attorney General's Office said in a statement.<\/span><\/p>\n
