ABC7.According to prosecutors, Keller allegedly chose his victims because he believed them to be Jewish or gay, and police claim he posted “disturbing” statements on Instagram towards his victims that included threats and hate speech.No one was injured in any of the incidents, although Sini emphasized the fear that Keller allegedly provoked in his victims, saying: “When you’re targeted based on your religion, that is an extremely isolating and scary feeling to have.”Keller’s attorney, Glenn Obedin, told ABC7 that the evidence will show that his client was being harassed by other people, and that Sini’s version of events isn’t the full story.“Whether or not he did theses things, we’ll find out,” Obedin said.
