Texas ex-firefighter headed to prison for threatening his black neighbors with hanged baby dolls
former firefighter is headed to federal prison for threatening his black neighbors by hanging baby dolls outside of their apartment.
The Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported that 64-year-old Glenn Eugene Halfin will spend a year in a federal institution after pleading guilty to a hate crime charge earlier in the year.
Halfin’s lawyer argued that his client is “not a racist” and that he hung the dolls outside the apartment of his upstairs neighbors — whose daughter was an infant at the time — due to a noise dispute. According to court records, the man also egged his neighbors’ car and “spread feces inside” of it.
Halfin reportedly threw a noose onto their balcony and hung dolls outside of their apartment twice.
