A Cornell University junior accused of posting violently threatening statements against Jewish people on campus was held without bail after his first appearance in federal court
Wednesday. Patrick Dai, from the Rochester, New York suburb of Pittsford, is charged with posting threats to kill or injure another using interstate communications. The graphic, anonymous messages posted this weekend on a Greek life forum rattled Jewish students on the Ithaca campus in upstate New York.
Dai, 21, waived his right to a bail hearing during his initial court appearance in Syracuse. He also was assigned a federal public defender, Gabrielle DiBella. A preliminary hearing was scheduled for Nov. 15, according to federal officials. Dai's mother attended the court appearance and did not comment afterward, according to media reports. The Associated Press left a phone message seeking comment from DiBella.
