Las Vegas Man Indicted for Antisemitic Threats Against Senators

John Miller faces trial in January for threats against Senator Jacky Rosen and another unnamed senator, amid rising antisemitism in the U.S..

John Miller, a 43-year-old Las Vegas man, has been indicted on charges of making antisemitic threats against U.S. Senator Jacky Rosen and her family, as well as the family of another unnamed U.S. senator.
Miller allegedly made several threatening calls and voicemails containing antisemitic slurs to Rosen last month, some of them making reference to the Israel-Hamas war and the Holocaust.
Miller also went to a federal courthouse in Las Vegas to see Rosen but was turned away after refusing to provide identification. He then began shouting threats against Israelis outside the courthouse.
Miller's trial is scheduled for January, and he is currently in custody. He faces up to 10 years in prison if convicted.
The indictment comes as many have sounded the alarm about rising antisemitism and Islamophobia across the U.S. and worldwide amid the war. The Anti-Defamation League has recorded a nearly-quadruple spike in antisemitic incidents since the onset of the war.
