Hide your kids, because the infamous anti-Semitic Elmo is back in the spotlight. Dan Sandler, the disturbing New York City street performer who has earned notoriety for spewing hate speech against Jews, is currently facing charges for a $2 million extortion scheme against the Girl Scouts of America.
