New details about the California man accused of killing University of Pennsylvania sophomore Blaze Bernstein earlier this month suggest the victim's former classmate idolized symbols of white nationalism and may have been motivated by anti-Semitism.
Authorities in Orange County last week charged 20-year-old Samuel Woodward in the fatal stabbing of Bernstein, 19, who disappeared Jan. 2 while home visiting his family for winter break in Lake Forest. The pre-med student's remains were found in a shallow grave at Borrego Park a week after he went missing, with DNA evidence and digital communications linking Woodward to his death, police said..
Days after police identified Woodward as a person of interest, reports surfaced he had a history of violent remarks on various social media platforms. A search warrant affidavit also referenced a possible sexual encounter and disagreement between Woodward and Bernstein on the night of the disappearance.
A recent report from the New York Post brings to light several examples of Woodward's alleged extremism, including statements from those knowledgeable about his social media activity.
On iFunny, a popular app for sharing humorous snaps, Woodward allegedly ran a now-deleted account with the username "Saboteur."
