Washington, February 29 (RHC)-- U.S. Federal officials have announced they’ve arrested five members of a far-right white nationalist group who were conspiring to threaten and intimidate journalists and activists around the United States.
U.S. prosecutors say members of the neo-Nazi group Atomwaffen threatened Black and Jewish journalists in Arizona and the Seattle area, while others harassed and threatened an unnamed reporter from ProPublica.
That reporter is likely journalist A.C. Thompson, who’s written extensively about Atomwaffen and one of its leaders, John Cameron Denton, who was among those arrested earlier this week.
