哈弗福德(宾夕法尼亚州)——宾州东区联邦检察官办公室表示,哈弗福德学院宗教学副教授哈光甜(Guangtian Ha)已被联邦起诉并被捕,一份9月30日递交的起诉书于10月6日解封。检方指控,2025年10月至2026年5月间,哈光甜使用至少四个匿名社交平台X账号,向一名犹太同事发送约50条包含反犹内容与暴力威胁的信息,并公开了该同事的家庭住址及其幼儿的姓名,迫使这一家人两次带孩子离家躲避。
哈光甜出生于中国,在哥伦比亚大学获得人类学博士学位,2023年曾获美国人类学学会颁发的格尔茨奖(Clifford Geertz Prize)。哈弗福德学院校长温迪·雷蒙德(Wendy Raymond)表示,哈光甜已被停职并被禁止进入校园,称基于身份的骚扰在该校没有容身之地。检方已要求法庭继续羁押被告。本案指控尚未经法庭审判定罪,被告依法享有无罪推定。
Haverford Professor Guangtian Ha Arrested as Federal Cyberstalking Indictment Is Unsealed
HAVERFORD, Pa. — Federal prosecutors in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania said Guangtian Ha, an associate professor of religion at Haverford College, has been arrested under a federal indictment filed September 30 and unsealed October 6. Prosecutors allege that between October 2025 and May 2026, Ha used at least four anonymous accounts on X to send a Jewish colleague roughly 50 messages containing antisemitic content and violent threats, and posted the colleague's home address and the name of the colleague's young child, forcing the family to flee their home twice with the child.
Ha, who was born in China and earned a Ph.D. in anthropology from Columbia University, received the American Anthropological Association's Clifford Geertz Prize in 2023. Haverford President Wendy Raymond said Ha has been suspended and barred from campus, saying identity-based harassment has no place at the college. Prosecutors have asked the court to keep him detained. The charges have not been proven in court, and the defendant is presumed innocent.
