Florida man sentenced to 15 years for vandalising mosque

Michael Wolfe pleads guilty to breaking windows, cameras and lights with machete, as well as leaving bacon on mosque's doorstep

A man who vandalised a Florida mosque in January 2016 and left a raw slab of bacon on its doorstep was sentenced to 15 years in prison in a hate crime conviction, a state attorney's spokesman said on Wednesday.

Michael Wolfe, 37, pleaded guilty on Tuesday to criminal mischief to a place of worship in a case considered a felony hate crime, said Todd Brown, a state's attorney spokesperson.

“He entered a plea deal and pleaded guilty to vandalising the mosque itself with hate crime enhancement, making it a felony,” said Brown, according to a USA Today report.
