White Supremacist Blogger Robert Stacy McCain’s Neo-Nazi Pal Convicted
Robert Stacy McCain’s neo-Nazi pal Bill White, who McCain met at a 2002 conference of the white nationalist group American Renaissance, has been convicted in Virginia on four counts of making online threats, and may be spending a long time in prison.
ROANOKE, Va. (AP) A federal jury in Virginia has found a white supremacist guilty of four counts of making online threats.
Jurors deliberating in Roanoke returned their verdict Friday against William A. White. They also found him not guilty of three counts.
The head of a Roanoke neo-Nazi group, White was found guilty on charges that in one case involved threats intended to prevent residents of a Virginia Beach apartment complex from giving testimony in a housing discrimination case.
White’s attorneys had argued in U.S. District Court that his e-mails and online postings were protected by the First Amendment.
White faces a maximum of 40 years in prison on the four convictions. A sentencing date has not been scheduled.
