Quinn OwenThe man accused of shooting two Jewish men in Pico-Robertson last year has agreed to plead guilty to hate crime and firearm charges, the Justice Department announced Tuesday.
"These horrific acts - motivated by poisonous, antisemitic beliefs - shocked our community," United States Attorney Martin Estrada said in a statement. "Law enforcement will continue to work together to prevent and punish hate crimes. Our resolve remains firm, standing with our Jewish community and others to oppose acts of hate."
The man accused of shooting two Jewish men in the Pico-Robertson area of Los Angeles was"on the radar" of the FBI due to"hate-fueled" remarks before the attacks, LAPD Chief Michel Moore said. Tran had a history of making antisemitic remarks going back to 2018 when he made "hate-filled statements" about other students while he was in dental school, according to the press release.
