Hate crime case resurrects racial wounds in NYC

FILE - This photo released by the New York City Police Department in this May 16, 2008 file photo shows Yitzhak Shuchat. The extradition of a white Orthodox Jewish man to New York City to face hate crime charges over a black man’s attack has renewed questions about the case. Supporters of Shuchat say there’s no evidence of racial hatred in the 2008 street encounter he had with Andrew Charles.
