Reward Offered After Antisemitic Graffiti Defaces Pasadena Synagogue Burn Site

The congregation displaced by last year’s Eaton Fire now worships at temporary sites.

Overview

  • Los Angeles County officials approved a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction in the case.
  • Deputies documented the vandalism on Sunday and transferred the case to the Sheriff’s Major Crimes Bureau hate-crimes unit, with no suspect or arrest announced as of Tuesday.
  • Photos show black spray paint with an expletive targeting Zionism and the phrase “RIP Renee,” which Rabbi Joshua Ratner believes refers to Renee Nicole Good.
  • ADL Los Angeles, Altadena Station Capt. Ethan Marquez, Rep. Judy Chu, and Supervisor Kathryn Barger condemned the act as a hate crime against a community in recovery.
  • PJTC lost its campus in the Eaton Fire and relocated worship to First United Methodist Church and its Hebrew school to the Frostig School.
