Domagoj Patkovic, a 31-year-old from Oregon, pleaded guilty to making bomb threats against Jewish hospitals on Long Island, a series of actions that endangered lives and wasted law enforcement resources. Federal prosecutors disclosed that Patkovic was part of a group that began the hoaxes in May 2021, and he admitted to making at least six threatening calls. His actions included livestreaming these calls on social media. He now faces a potential sentence of 15 years in prison for his conspiracy and threats.
According to prosecutors, Patkovic was part of a crew of troublemakers who began making anonymous threatening calls to Jewish hospitals and facilities on Long Island in May 2021.
In doing so, he needlessly endangered patients and staff and diverted critical law enforcement resources from their core mission of keeping our community safe.
