The Ventura County District Attorney's Office in California has stated that the death of a pro-Israel protester does not currently meet the elements of a hate crime, though the investigation is ongoing.

A man has been charged with involuntary manslaughter in connection with the death of Paul Kessler, a Jewish pro-Israel activist.

Paul Kessler, a 69-year-old Jewish man, died from a head injury sustained during an altercation with a pro-Palestinian protester at a pro-Israel demonstration in Thousand Oaks, California.
