(November 18, 2008)--A federal grand jury in Texas has indicted a white supremacist on hate crime charges stemming from a prison attack on a Jewish cellmate.
Timothy York was indicted on two charges of bias-motivated assault in connection with a December 2007 assault on his cellmate.
According to the indictment, York tried to strangle his cellmate using a ligature made from prison clothing.
At the time, York was held at Seagoville Federal Correctional Institution, about 16 miles southeast of Dallas.
Authorities said he is a member of the United/Universal Aryan Brotherhood.
The indictment alleges that York targeted his cellmate, who is Jewish, because of his religion.
If convicted, York faces as much as 30 years in prison, a $500,000 fine and five years of supervised release.
The Federal Bureau of Prisons said York is no longer in its custody.
