Neo-Nazi Ringleader Indicted

It’s with great pleasure I pass on the following news from the Southern Poverty Law Center:

A federal grand jury has indicted the top leader of the neo-Nazi National Alliance, once the most feared hate group in America, and charged him and two subordinates with conspiring to deprive non-white people in Salt Lake City of their civil rights, the U.S. Department of Justice announced today.
Alliance Chairman Shaun A. Walker, 38, was arrested at the West Virginia headquarters of the group on Thursday. On the same day, Travis D. Massey, 29, the Alliance’s Salt Lake City unit coordinator, and Eric G. Egbert, 21, of Salt Lake City were arrested in Utah. Each man is charged with one count of conspiracy to interfere with civil rights and one count of interference with a federally protected activity.
“These arrests may mark the final stage in what has been a long decline in the National Alliance,” said Mark Potok, director of the Southern Poverty Law Center’s Intelligence Project, which has monitored the Alliance since the 1980s. “What was once the most important hate group in America may soon be just a memory.”

Full story.
