A California man pleaded guilty Friday to a plot against an Orange County, Calif., synagogue and two churches he perceived as tied to the Jewish community, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Nicholas Wesley Rose, who allegedly kept a “kill list” of prominent Jewish people, pleaded guilty Friday to one felony count of carrying a loaded firearm not registered to him and three misdemeanor civil rights violations in connection with the threats.

After making his plea, Rose was sentenced to two years and three months in the Orange County Jail and another year in a residential mental health treatment program, along with five years’ probation under GPS monitoring. Rose is also required to remain at least 500 yards from the victims of his threats, according to the newspaper.

“There is no place for hate,” Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer (R) said in a statement. “He is a danger to society and every resident of Orange County should be aware of the threat he poses.”

Rose’s parents reached out to the police last April out of concern about increasingly violent anti-Semitic language from their son, including a stated intent to “get a gun and kill some Jews,” according to Spitzer’s office.

Police found anti-Semitic and white supremacist literature, including a journal of such writings by Rose. He had also written notes on perceived negative characteristics of two area churches, which he found overly sympathetic to Jewish people, and internet searches relating to white supremacy and the effective range of a suppressed .22-caliber rifle.

Police found hundreds of rounds of .22-caliber ammunition in Rose’s car along with a sleeping bag and shovel, according to Spitzer’s office.

The guilty plea comes two months after a gunman killed one and injured several more at a San Diego synagogue, and about eight months after a mass shooting at Pittsburgh’s Tree of Life synagogue, the deadliest anti-Semitic shooting in U.S. history.
