The irony : Californian nazi gang leader flees over border to Mexico - FBI get him.




The FBI arrested the leader of a violent California neo-Nazi gang, who fled the country by crossing into Mexico. It seems terrorists are, indeed, crossing the US-Mexico border.

The F.B.I. arrested the leader of a violent California neo-Nazi gang on a federal conspiracy charge after he fled the country earlier this month.

Robert Rundo, 28, of Huntington Beach, Calif., is being held at the federal jail in downtown Los Angeles. He was charged in a criminal complaint that was unsealed Tuesday.

Mr. Rundo apparently crossed into Mexico two weeks ago from California and then made his way to Central America. He was later brought back to the United States, where he was arrested Sunday at Los Angeles International Airport, according to two people familiar with the case who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they was not authorized to speak publicly.

He is the founder of the Rise Above Movement, a neo-Nazi gang based in Southern California whose members were involved in violent activity at protests throughout California in 2017.

.................

Does anybody else see the complete irony and hypocrisy in this........well terrorists are crossing the border, our own homegrown ones.

Maybe he was hoping to find some WWII Nazi war criminals to hook up with.
