Perpetrator of Jane Kim Death Threat Identified

Marc Nortonbyline‚ Nov. 29‚ 2007

Beyond Chron has learned the identity of the person who sent out a Facebook message last year which said "Jane Kim needs to die." Kim is an elected member of the San Francisco School Board, who supported the Board's decision last November to phase out the JROTC program from San Francisco schools.

We have identified the person who made the death threat as Daniel Chin, a JROTC cadet who graduated from Lowell High School in 2006. Significantly, Chin has emerged as a leader of the pro-JROTC forces trying to overturn the School Board's decision to phase out JROTC. According to the board's mandate, there should be no more JROTC classes after the end of the current 2007-2008 school year.
