Cemetery desecrator charged in vandalism of Jewish school
ROCKVILLE, Md. (UPI) -- A self-described Satanist from Montgomery
County, who served prison time for digging up the remains of an infant in a
Mount Airy cemetery, has been charged with desecrating a Jewish school last
month.
Montgomery County police said Donald Wingo, 21, was arrested earlier in
the week along with Forrest Gerber, 22, bringing to three the number of
people apprehened for the ransacking of Yeshiva of Greater Washington.
The Jewish secondary school was vandalized Dec. 26, on the fifth night
of Hanukah. Vandals did thousands of dollars damage and painted the slogans
"Satan" and "Roman Catholics Rule" on the blackboards.
Wingo and Gerber were charged with burglary, conspiracy to commit
burglary destroying property and desecrating religious property, The
Washington Post reported Saturday.
A third suspect, Jeffrey Eskew, 20, a self-described racist skinhead,
was arrested last week and is being held in a Los Angeles jail on an
unrelated charge. County police hope to bring him back to Maryland.
