An Irvine man is facing felony hate crime charges for allegedly having “kill lists” with names of prominent Jewish community members, including some in the entertainment industry, and a list of steps for “killing my first Jew,” authorities said.

Nicholas Rose, 26, pleaded not guilty Thursday to three felony counts of attempted criminal threats and three misdemeanor counts of civil rights violation, with sentencing enhancements for hate crimes.

Orange County prosecutors said one of Rose’s family members called the Orange Police Department on Monday after Rose expressed the desired to kill people and made violent threats against the Jewish community.

Police arrested Rose after they searched his home Tuesday and found .22-caliber ammunition, anti-Semitic literature, “kill lists” with names of prominent Jewish community members and a list of steps entitled, “Killing my first Jew,” according to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office.

Officers also found papers referencing a synagogue and a Greek Orthodox Church, both in Irvine, and a Russian Orthodox Church in Lake Forest, authorities said.

Senior Deputy District Attorney Jeff Moore, who is prosecuting the case, said investigators are reviewing Rose’s computer and cellphone records to determine if he might be part of a hate group.

Moore did not know how many people were on the “kill lists” but said the lists included names of prominent Jewish community members, including some well-known names in the entertainment industry. He declined to give specific names but said police have alerted those who were on the lists.

Moore said investigators are reviewing Rose’s writings, some of which are rambling and confusing.

“From his writings it’s hard tell exactly what direction he’s going in or who he was angry with,” Moore said. “He was apparently displeased with some churches that he thought were sympathetic to the Jewish cause.”

Moore said it’s unclear at this time whether Rose intended to carry out his threats.

Rose is due in back in court on April 27. If convicted, he faces six years in prison.
