\"\"A Springfield, Ohio, man was sentenced in U.S. District Court Tuesday to 20 years in prison for committing federal hate crimes targeting and attacking Haitian nationals residing in the area, officials stated.<\/span><\/p>\n

Izaye Eubanks, 22, pleaded guilty to federal and local crimes in August. He admitted to committing hate crimes against at least eight Haitian nationals.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis defendant is being held accountable for repeatedly assaulting and robbing members of the Haitian community in Springfield, Ohio, because of their national origin,\u201d said Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke of the Justice Department\u2019s Civil Rights Division. <\/span><\/p>\n

Adding,\u201cAttacks like these, where a group of individuals is targeted for violent abuse and robbery because of who they are, will not be tolerated. The Justice Department will continue to enforce our federal criminal civil rights laws to protect all people in this country, and we will prosecute predators who commit violent, bias-motivated crimes.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"closeupAccording to court documents, in January and February, Eubanks committed various assaults, robberies, and carjackings of Haitian individuals because of the victims\u2019 actual and perceived national origin. <\/span><\/p>\n

Eubanks would travel throughout Springfield looking for individuals he believed were from Haiti and then attack the individuals, usually by punching them and knocking them to the ground, before robbing them of their money, cell phones, a vehicle, and\/or other personal belongings.<\/span><\/p>\n

On Jan. 29, Eubanks assaulted and robbed a victim while the victim was walking to wire $300 in cash to his mother in Haiti. Eubanks punched the victim in the back of the head and neck, causing him to black out briefly, then robbed the victim of his cash, cell phone, and ATM cards. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"That same day, Eubanks assaulted a victim as he left a Haitian market. Eubanks grabbed the victim by his shirt, pulled him out of his vehicle, and punched him in the face before stealing the victim\u2019s vehicle.<\/span><\/p>\n

On Feb. 1, Eubanks directed juveniles to help him complete four separate attacks on five additional victims.<\/span><\/p>\n

The FBI Cincinnati Field Office investigated the case.<\/span><\/p>\n

Assistant U.S. Attorneys Amy M. Smith and Ryan A. Saunders for the Southern District of Ohio prosecuted the case.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
