FBI Arrests Mississippi Man Who Allegedly Threatened Area Synagogues, Jewish-owned Businesses

Parish “repeatedly referenced Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party’s genocide of approximately six million Jewish people,” according to an indictment unsealed on July 13. He “specifically stat[ed] among other things, ‘Heil Hitler,” ‘All Jews Should Burn,” ‘All Jews must die,’ “We will put you in work camps,’ ‘Gas the Jews,” and ‘Hitler should have finished the job.’”

The indictment did not identify the targeted businesses and synagogues.

Parish faces up to five years in prison on the most serious charge.

FBI arrested Parish on July 13 in Mississippi and will likely be extradited in the weeks ahead, the Inquirer reported.
