A bomb squad and Palm Beach County Fire Rescue were called to the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office headquarters over the weekend after members from the group ‘Goyim Defense League’ - led by Jon Minadeo II - targeted law enforcement vehicles.
According to a private investigating officer with the Sheriff's office, on January 22, an individual put antisemitic propaganda in small bags filled with an unknown substance on vehicles in the employee parking lot.
The bomb squad and Palm Beach County Fire Rescue's hazardous materials teams were called to test the substance.
It was determined that the substance in the small bags was wood chips.
NGO StopAntisemitism tweeted a disturbing image of GDL leader, Jon Minadeo II, flashing two firearms and making openly racist threats.
