DOJ indicts 8 pro-Palestinian activists over threats tied to U-M divestment push * Michigan Advance

The DOJ has indicted eight pro-Palestinian activists tied to the University of Michigan on charges of transmitting threats to university leaders, law enforcement, and businesses as part of a coordinated effort to pressure the university to divest from Israel. The 63-page grand jury indictment was filed last month in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan and unsealed Wednesday after a raid in Ypsilanti, Washtenaw County. The named defendants are Paige Feyock, Amatullah Hakim, Zainab Hakim, Ahmet Korkaya, Miriam Odeh, Alexander Sepulveda, Colin Weger, and Jonathan Zou. Prosecutors say the group used encrypted messages, social media, and overseas partners to research, target, and threaten victims, later broadcasting warnings online.
