Ohio Man Pleads Guilty to Attempting to Burn Down Church in Response to Drag Events

A 20-year-old Ohio man has pleaded guilty to attempting to burn down a church in a rural area outside of Cleveland due to his anger over the church's plans to host two drag events. Aimenn Penny was arrested in March after throwing two Molotov cocktails at the Community Church of Chesterland, and faces up to 20 years in prison. The Justice Department's Civil Rights Division has condemned the attack, emphasizing that churches should be safe havens for all people.
