An attorney serving in the Illinois state Comptroller’s Office has been fired for an antisemitic tirade in which she told a Jewish person that she wanted them to face the gas chamber and said, “Hitler should have eradicated all of you.”
Sarah Chowdhury referred to Jews as “vermin” and said “all Zionists should pay” in private messages with an Instagram account called Big Law Boiz.
Other messages, which the Instagram user screenshotted and were later posted to X, included, “Hopefully someone sends you anthrax or poison and you die a slow terrible death.”
In the messages, she also said, “I’d rather put you in a gas chamber” and “Hitler should have eradicated all of you.”
The comptroller’s office said in a statement Thursday it was made aware of Chowdhury’s private messages around 12:30 p.m., and Comptroller Susana Mendoza contacted her about an hour and a half later.
Chowdhury was fired after she admitted making at least some of the comments.
“Comptroller Mendoza has zero tolerance for antisemitism or hate speech,” the comptroller’s office said in a statement.
She was also ousted from her position as president of the South Asian Law Association.

Chowdhury said she is “extremely” sorry for the “inappropriate and reprehensible” comments, and apologized to the person she messaged and anyone who read her comments, in remarks to the Chicago Tribune.
She said she was distraught over the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas and grew frustrated with the way the conflict was being covered by the media and discussed on social media.
“I don’t know what came over me,” Chowdhury said. “I was in a state of panic.

BTW, you share your first name with the matriarch of the Jewish people. You may want to change that if you hate Jews that much.
Her true character is revealed.
When they get caught.
Id be happier with more Jews than Indians in this country.
She could be a Paki.
We keep importing anti-semites by the boat-load. It’s not surprising. Sad but not surprising.
That’s the second such “apology” in two days. These vile people are scrambling to salvage their careers. With such despicable hate and poor judgment on display, who in their right mind would hire such an attorney?
She should emigrate to the ME and practice law there. She would fit right with most countries.
One less ideological bigot on the taxpayers dime
Very likely Paki or Bangladeshi. But certainly a muslim. She pulled her linkedin but per Google search results preview she is (was) president of the "South Asian Bar Association". I went to their site and it showed updated as of yesterday with names of 'executive board members' removed and a statement instead. South Asian typically means Ind/Pak/Bangladesh
Somehow we’re the, “literal Nazis” when people like this exist.
Hindus aren’t anti semites. On the contrary based on Youtube comments from people from India they consider Israel an ally in the war against radical Islam.
Indians and Pakis do not like each other, to the average American sometimes it’s hard to tell the difference.
Aha..but the web doesn’t forget !

From her looks I will guess she is Paki.
Unless the friends of color from that region tell me, I can't tell the difference. Pakistan was carved out of India in the past, also Bangladesh, and the major difference is their religions. So I generally don't ask.
Wow. More people exposed over Israel war and it’s not over funding. All these years of preaching about Islamophobia and it’s extremely opposite.
I'll bet she's a democrat... 'cause if she had been a Republican it would have been mentioned
So much hate in the World.
