Grad Student Arrested for Campus Hate Note | Oakland News
Description
A San Jose State grad student, Ziheng Fang, faces federal charges after leaving a racist, bomb-threat note in a campus restroom—targeting Muslims, Asians, and Jews, sparking fear and closing classes. With fingerprints and security footage linking him to the scene, and amid 20 similar hate graffiti incidents since October, authorities are investigating possible ties to others. Legal experts warn even if it was a prank, intent doesn’t matter—this disrupts the entire campus. If convicted, Fang could face up to five years; more if linked to other crimes. The arrest brings relief, but underscores how seriously hate crimes are treated.
