An Indiana woman accused of stabbing a college student of Chinese descent in January has been indicted on a federal hate crime count, the Justice Department said Thursday.
Billie Davis, 56, has already been charged on state counts in the attack on a bus Jan. 11 that injured the 18-year-old Indiana University student in Bloomington.
A federal grand jury indicted Davis on one hate crime count Thursday, the Justice Department said in a statement.
Davis is alleged to have told Bloomington police that she stabbed the student in the head with a folding knife for “being Chinese” and that “it would be one less person to blow up our country,” according to court documents in the state case.
