Jordan Nicholas Hadley, a 31-year-old Texas man, has been charged with leaving a voicemail message at Flock Safety, an Atlanta-based company, threatening to kill Jews. The message, left on April 24, 2026, was laced with hate and violence, prompting a federal investigation. Hadley was arrested on July 9, 2026, and will face up to five years in prison if convicted.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Atlanta has been cracking down on rising antisemitism, with Hadley being the fourth defendant in 12 months to face federal prosecution for making antisemitic threats online or by phone. U.S. Attorney Theodore S. Hertzberg vowed to hold accountable anyone who threatens members of the community based on their religious beliefs.
The FBI has been working closely with the U.S. Attorney’s Office to combat antisemitic hate and ensure that every American can practice their religion without fear of threats or harm. Special Agent in Charge of FBI Atlanta, Marlo Graham, emphasized the importance of protecting the American people and upholding the Constitution.
The case against Hadley is a stark reminder of the pernicious evil of antisemitism and the need for continued vigilance and action to combat hate crimes. As the U.S. Attorney’s Office continues to work with law enforcement partners to hold accountable those who threaten and harm others, the community can be assured that such vile hate will not be tolerated.
