The Illinois Comptroller's Office fired one of their attorneys over antisemitic comments on Instagram linked to the Israel-Hamas war
An Instagram meme account "Big Law Boiz" run by a Jewish man posted direct messages sent to them by Sarah Chowdhury
Chowdury's comments included "F***ing Jew," "I'd rather put you in a gas chamber bet you'd like that," "With all of our Zionist ancestors" and "Hitler should have eradicated all of you"
The comptroller's office told The National Desk in a statement, “She admitted to at least some of the posts” adding that the office has “zero tolerance for antisemitism or hate speech”
Chowdhury was fired within 90 minutes of the office learning of the comments
Chowdhury told the Chicago Tribune on Thursday she was "extremely sorry" for the "reprehensible" comments. She then resigned from her role as President of the South Asian Bar Association of Chicago
Her now-removed bio from the SABA Chicago page said she was also Co-Chair of the Chicago Bar’s Racial Justice Coalition. The Chicago Bar said they’re conducting an “internal investigation”
