perezhilton.com[Warning: Potentially Triggering Content] Whoa. This is horrific. A 6-year-old boy in Illinois was fatally stabbed by his family’s landlord over the weekend.
And the motive? It all allegedly stems from the violent war between Hamas and Israel. According to a press release from the Will County Sheriff’s Office on Sunday, 71-year-old Joseph Czuba (pictured above, in his mugshot) of Plainfield Township was charged with first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder, two counts of hate crime, and aggravated battery with a deadly weapon for killing the child and injuring his mother.
The tragic attack took place on Saturday when deputies were called to the residence by a 32-year-old woman who reported her landlord attacked her with a knife.
When cops arrived at the property, they found Joseph “sitting upright outside on the ground near the driveway of the residence” with “a laceration to his forehead.” He “was later transported to a local area hospital for treatment.” Meanwhile, both victims were discovered in a bedroom with “multiple stab wounds to their chest, torso and upper extremities.” They were taken to the hospital and the child was said to be in critical condition until he “later succumbed to his injuries.” Related: Taylor Swift’s Bodyguard Heading To Israel To Fight Hamas Terrorist Group Horrifyingly, an autopsy of the boy revealed he was “stabbed 26 times throughout his body.” The knife, which was removed from the victim by the forensic pathologist, was described as a 12-inch serrated military-style weapon with a 7-inch blade.
