I did a search and couldn't believe this story hadn't already been posted here.

NORFOLK, Va. (WAVY) - A man who pleaded guilty to vandalizing two Norfolk synagogues with anti-Semitic stickers last year was sentenced to serve five years in prison Friday.

John Edward Grogan, 30, was had 15 years of a 20 years sentenced suspended, resulting in five total years, after being convicted for two counts of injury to a church or cemetery, and two counts of conspiracy to commit a felony. Grogan pleaded guilty to these charges in February.

In April 2009, more than 60 anti-Semitic stickers were found on doors, windows and signs of Temple Israel Synagogue and Beth Messiah Synagogue--both of which are on Granby Street. Stickers were also found on other Norfolk synagogues.

Grogan's co-defendant, Christopher John Brooks, 25, pleaded guilty in early May to one count of injury to a cemetery or church. He was sentenced to five years, but those years were suspended and only faced time served in prison. Brooks is currently on probation.

More information on the background of these vandalism incidents is available in the stories in the sidebar to the left.

Could you get five years for stickers on a church or mosque? I doubt it.


The average kwan is of such low quality that he'd shoot himself if he had any self awareness.
