Love, your son and my family, Louie, Karen, Michael and Noelle Man ordered to stay away from Wiesel Holocaust scholar was attack in S.F.

on Feb. 1 By LISA LEFF The Associated Press SAN FRANCISCO A New Jersey man was ordered to stay away from Holocaust scholar Elie Wiesel for the next three years when he appeared in a California courtroom for the first time Friday to face charges of assaulting the Nobel Peace laureate. Eric Hunt, 22, who was extradited from New Jersey on Thursday, did not speak or enter a plea when he was arraigned in the Feb. 1 attack at a San Francisco hotel where Wiesel addressed a peace forum. His defense lawyer, John Runfola, said he was weighing an insanity defense in the case.

"Eric has an undiagnosed psychiatric disorder," Runfola said outside court. "He is not a Holocaust denier," Hunt has been charged with attempted kidnapping, false imprisonment, battery, stalking, elder abuse and hate crimes which carry a maximum sentence of seven years in prison and a $10,000 fine, according to prosecutor Alan Kennedy. Wiesel, who chronicled his experiences as a Jewish teenager at two Nazi death camps in the best-selling book "Night," told police he was accosted by a young man who asked him for an interview and then dragged him off an elevator at the Argent Hotel. In the days after the incident, Wiesel said he hadn't been so afraid for his life since his days at Auschwitz and Buchenwald. Meanwhile, someone identifying himself as Eric Hunt posted a detailed account of having stalked and attacked Wiesel on an anti-Semitic Web site.

The Eric Hunt who was in court Friday was arrested at a New Jersey psychiatric hospital where his mother had him placed after he returned from a solo "road trip" in February, according to Runfola. Hunt was given psychiatric drugs while he was jailed in New Jersey, where another lawyer delayed his extradition to California by arguing he was not mentally competent, Runfola said.
