A 57-year-old Minnesota man has been sentenced to a year in prison for threatening to blow up the Tawfiq Islamic Center in Minneapolis. Daniel Fisher pleaded guilty in November and admitted to writing and sending an anonymous letter to the center in 2015 threatening to “blow up your building with all you immigrants in it.” The letter also included profanities, racial and ethnic slurs, and other derogatory comments about the religious and cultural practices of the members of the center. Fisher confessed to officials that he had become “increasingly angry with Muslims since 9/11” and was upset about the center’s new location.
