A Texas man who attacked an Asian family he believed to be 'Chinese and therefore responsible for the Covid-19 pandemic,' sentenced to 25 years in prison on hate crime charges, DOJ says.
He then found a serrated steak knife in the store and bent it so that it rested against his knuckles with the sharp edge facing outward.Gomez then found an eight-inch knife in the store, returned to the family and turned towards the father’s two young children, six and two years old, seated in the front basket of a shopping cart, officials said.
"The Justice Department stands ready to use our hate crimes laws to hold perpetrators accountable,” Clarke said, noting that hate crimes targeting Asian Americans"have spiked during the pandemic and must be confronted."
