“Preventing and prosecuting hate crimes is a top priority for the Justice Department and my office,” Zachary Myers, U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Indiana, said in a news release. “We want to ensure the public that if a crime is motivated by bias, it will be investigated, and the perpetrators held responsible for their actions.”

Boryga appeared before a judge Tuesday, court documents say. He was released pending further court proceedings.

An email seeking comment was sent to Boryga’s attorney, federal community defender William H. Dazey Jr.

A phone message seeking comment was left at the ADL’s main office in New York.
