Sheriff wants hate crimes indictment in beating
Marketti says Scott Finch of Diamond and Luke Harty of Ransom are already charged with aggravated battery in the early Sunday morning attack against 35-year-old Faud Nafie.

Marketti says Finch said after his arrest that he was defending the nation against terrorists.

Nafie works at a goat and sheep farm and processing plant that slaughters animals according to Muslim tradition in Kinsman. The business was raided last month by FBI agents investigating the plant's owner, Tahawwur Hussain Rana, on federal terrorism charges.

But the plant workers, including Nafie, have not been accused of any wrongdoing.
