Overview
- U.S. District Judge Jennifer H. Rearden in the Southern District of New York imposed a 49‑month prison term on October 30, 2025, followed by three years of supervised release.
- Prosecutors said the months-long campaign began after Instagram posts shared the family’s contact information when their son’s IDF combat footage drew widespread attention.
- Hall pleaded guilty earlier this year to interstate threats and stalking after contacting Jewish victims roughly 1,000 times with violent messages over three months.
- The Blue Moon Hotel owner, relatives, and staff received dozens of threatening calls and texts that included photos of two firearms and a machete alongside explicit threats to kill and torture.
- FBI agents searching Hall’s Mesa, Arizona residence on November 22, 2024 recovered the same weapons shown in his messages, including a loaded firearm and other unregistered weapons, and officials said the near‑maximum sentence serves as a deterrent.
