Filthy Fuhrer, and Four Others of the White Supremacist Gang 1488s Sentenced

ANCHORAGE, ALASKA (CNBNews) February,2023– Filthy Fuhrer, formerly Timothy Lobdell, 46; Roy Naughton, aka Thumper, 44; Glen Baldwin, aka Glen Dog, 41; Colter O’Dell, 30; and Craig King, aka Oakie, 57, were sentenced this week in Alaska to life in prison without the possibility of parole. All five defendants were convicted of racketeering conspiracy, conspiracy in aid of racketeering, murder in aid of racketeering, kidnapping resulting in death, and kidnapping conspiracy. Fuhrer and Naughton were also each convicted of an additional two counts of kidnapping conspiracy, kidnapping, and assault in aid of racketeering.

Evidence presented at trial showed that the defendants were leaders, members, and associates of the 1488s. This violent, prison-based Neo-Nazi gang operated inside and outside of state prisons throughout Alaska. The 1488s used Nazi-derived symbols to identify themselves and their affiliation with the gang, including a 1488 “patch” tattoo that depicts an Iron Cross superimposed over a swastika. The tattoo was awarded to members who gained full membership by committing acts of violence on behalf of the gang. The gang enforced discipline through written rules and a code of conduct, including the boast that “the only currency we recognize is violence and unquestionable loyalty.”

The trial testimony established that Fuhrer founded and led the 1488 gang from inside a maximum-security prison, where he was serving a 19-year sentence for the attempted murder of an Alaska State Trooper. In addition to directing acts of violence to establish the gang’s dominance in the prison hierarchy, Fuhrer ordered gang members to commit violent kidnappings and assaults in the “free world” outside of prison. As part of a plan to impose greater organization and structure among non-incarcerated members, Fuhrer insisted on punishing members that he perceived to be defying the 1488 code of conduct thereby diminishing the power, influence, and reputation of the gang. Fuhrer sent out a trusted lieutenant with a list of directives, culminating in the kidnapping and assault of two lower-level gang members on April 2, 2017, and July 20, 2017, and the kidnapping, assault, and murder of Michael Staton on Aug. 3, 2017.

According to the trial evidence, on April 2, 2017, defendant Roy Naughton and other 1488 members, acting at the direction of Fuhrer, lured a victim to a gang meeting at Naughton’s residence. Once there, the victim was taken into a basement, held at gun point, tied up, and assaulted. As part of the assault, the gang members shattered a lightbulb in his mouth and tattooed him with a racial epithet. The victim was threatened with more violence if the incident was reported to police.

In addition, the evidence at trial demonstrated that on July 17, 2017, Fuhrer called Naughton from prison. During the call Naughton boasted about the April 2 assault and reported to Fuhrer that another member would be assaulted in the next few days. On July 20, 2017, a second victim was similarly assaulted and had his 1488 membership patch burned off.

Evidence also showed that in 2016 Naughton asked for and received permission from Fuhrer to impose exceptionally severe discipline on 1488 member Michael Staton, who held himself out as a member of the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club, for stealing from both the 1488’s and defendant Craig King.

Naughton, King, and defendants Glen Baldwin and Colter O’Dell worked with other 1488 members to locate, kidnap, and murder Staton. On August 3, 2017, 1488 members, including Baldwin and O’Dell, lured Staton to Wasilla where they beat him and took him to King’s duplex. After arriving, Staton was taken to an empty room which had been lined with plastic sheeting. Inside the room King and the 1488s beat and tortured the victim, including cutting off his 1488 tattoo with a knife that had been heated with a propane torch. The defendants wrapped Staton in the plastic and carpeting, and Baldwin and O’Dell drove him to a remote section of Wasilla, where they shot him and set fire to his body. O’Dell was awarded full membership in the 1488s for his role in the murder.

The Hidden Legal Side of Buying and Selling Real Estate

You’ve found your dream home or finally landed a buyer for your property. Congratulations! But before you pop the champagne, there’s a whole legal landscape you need to navigate that most people don’t think about until they’re knee-deep in paperwork and potential problems.

Understanding What You’re Really Signing

When you’re buying or selling real estate, you’re not just exchanging keys for money. You’re entering into one of the most legally complex transactions most people ever make. That innocent-looking purchase agreement? It’s actually a binding contract that can have serious consequences if something goes wrong.

Every document you sign carries legal weight. The purchase agreement outlines contingencies, inspection periods, and what happens if either party backs out. Then there’s the title work, disclosure forms, and closing documents. Miss something important in the fine print, and you could be on the hook for thousands of dollars or even lose the property altogether.

What Makes A School Great

(NAPSI)—Great learning environments elude easy definitions. They come in all different shapes—traditional public schools, public magnet schools, public charter schools, private schools, online academies, and homeschooling programs. Perhaps the best definition is this: A great school is one in which students are academically challenged, equipped to be a good citizens and persons, and inspired to greatness.

Because children are different, you can best find a great school for your child when you have diverse options to consider. That could mean open enrollment in a public school outside of your “zone” so your child stays connected with an important peer group. It could mean a charter school focusing on classical education or a magnet school that lets students shadow medical professionals. Maybe it’s learning at an accelerated pace at home or through online coursework, or in a private school that shares your values.

It’s parents who really decide whether a school is good or even great, based on their children’s needs and interests. What might be an excellent learning environment for one child might not be a good fit for another.

That’s one reason National School Choice Week, Jan. 26 through Feb 1, 2020, is important. It raises awareness among parents of their K-12 education options. It’s celebrated by teachers, school leaders, parents, students, and community leaders at 50,000 events and activities.

This National School Choice Week, I encourage all families to explore their education options. You can start, and discover the choices available to you, at

Rutgers Dental School Receives Funding to Expand Care for Patients With Disabilities

By Carrie Stetler

Rutgers School of Dental Medicine will get a $250,000 boost for the only dental clinic in the region that provides care to patients with disabilities and on the autism spectrum.

The Rutgers School of Dental Medicine (RSDM) – which offers the only dental clinics in the region providing care to patients with disabilities – will be able to treat more special-needs patients because of new state funding expected to receive final approval from Governor Murphy.

The bill, which would give RSDM $250,000, was introduced by state assemblyman Dan Benson (D-14) in the spring and overwhelmingly passed the state senate and assembly. The governor has 45 days to give final approval.

“We deeply appreciate all of those who recognize how important it is that everyone, without exception, have access to oral health care,” said Cecile A. Feldman, dental school dean who thanked supporters for these much-needed funds. “Additional resources mean that we can provide care on a wider scale.’’

John Barnosky, the father of a special-needs patient who is on the autism spectrum, advocated strongly for funds to support RSDM’s Delta Dental of New Jersey Special Care Center, which trains dentists to work with patients who have disabilities.

“Disability can happen to anyone. It’s a bipartisan issue,’’ said Barnosky. “The approval of this bill shows that you can make a difference and be a voice for those who can’t speak for themselves.’’

A severe shortage of special-needs dentists, and a booming population of patients with physical disabilities and behavioral disorders, has left special-needs providers at

RSDM

and beyond struggling to meet the demand.

The dental school, the largest oral health care provider in the state, logged 7,757special-needs patient visits in 2017. In New Jersey, more than 10 percent of the population has at least one disability, a figure that totals 911,300.

Nationwide, 48 percent of patients with disabilities had no dental check-up within a year, compared to 35 percent without disabilities, according to a 2016 study published in the

Journal of Public Health Dentistry.

Barnosky’s son, Peter, 28, can be combative during check-ups. Since so few dentists are willing to provide even routine treatment, like cleanings and fillings, he often had to wait months for a non-emergency visit at RSDM.

Many dental offices lack ramps for wheelchairs, doorways that are wide enough for gurneys to fit through and other accommodations. But one of the greatest obstacles is dentists who lack training and experience. In addition to treating special-needs patients, RSDM trains all students to work with patients with disabilities.

According to Feldman, extra staffing and additional surgical resources to treat the many special care patients who need general anesthesia will greatly bolster RSDM’s clinical and educational mission.

Nothing is going to change for women until women demand change

So…in 2020, DEMAND CHANGE. Support women running!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE — CHICAGO – 1/2/2020 — Formulating New Year’s Eve resolutions for 2020?

RUN

, a new independently produced TV show, has a suggestion for the feminists in the room: support women running for office using a “squad” mentality that defends, supports and amplifies women during their run!

RUN

has already transformed the campaign of one woman, Bushra Amiwala, who won her race for school board in IL in 2019 by a narrow margin with the team’s help. The format of the show includes five female experts in campaign strategy, PR, tech, activism and comedy that empower scrappy, novice, passionate female political candidates to run. The team has already gathered an audience of 30k followers and is currently in talks with networks to land the show. The show’s trailer and info can be found at

www.runtheseries.com

“Nothing is going to change for women until women demand change as a group,” states Genevieve Thiers, producer and tech trainer of

RUN

. “We are the supermajority. But we’ve faced so many challenges for equality in our own lives that we very rarely support each other, monetarily or otherwise.” Thiers has one suggestion for reversing this thinking. “It’s 2020. Try something new. Reverse course and throw your support and voice behind as many women who share your views and are running as you possibly can.” Thiers has put her money where her mouth is on this front. A mother of twins who founded tech company

Sittercity.com

and has funded over 15 women in tech companies and supported over 50 women in politics, she is a force for women worldwide.

The RUN team has five specific suggestions for how best to help women running.

Support her with talent.

If you have an area of expertise….be it campaign, fundraising, tech, content creation, social media, field work, legal….reach out to her team right away and ask if there are gaps you can fill in the campaign office while she runs.

Support her with money.

Not all of us have to max out in donations. Even $1000 makes a huge difference to a woman running. The very best thing you can do is a home event, where you invite neighbors, friends and family and set a goal to raise x dollars for the candidate and her team.

Defend her.

If news comes out that seems suspect, in today’s era of false news it very well might be false. Women are also especially prone to attacks on their looks, their voices and any emotion they show. Use your voice on social media to call out anything blatantly unfair and urge friends to, too.

Amplify her.

In the same way, if the women you are supporting have policy changes, messaging or news that they are trying to distribute, send it across your social networks and send bulk emails. This is easy and will do wonders for her viral reach.

Zig when others Zag.

At first, your strategy of supporting women might be met with raise eyebrows, especially from boomer women, who unfortunately had it the worst when it came to competitiveness. Don’t try to talk these women over to your side. Just loudly and consistently support women and you will see it rub off fast into their own behaviors as well.

“It is so important for women to be a part of the political process” states the show’s PR expert Mary Simms, an army veteran and mother of twins based out of California. So this year, get out there this year and help women RUN.

RUN the Series

RUN is a new series produced by Ana Breton, Victoria Elena Nones and Genevieve Thiers. The show helps women running for office win via training and help from five female experts in Campaign Strategy, PR, Tech, Activism, and Comedy called “The Boss Squad.” In each episode of RUN, a different woman\’s campaign is transformed from striving to thriving. Filmed in the heart of Chicago and the surrounding suburbs, RUN’s pilot episode follows 21-year-old muslim candidate Bushra Amiwala in her race for School Board in Skokie, IL. (Spoiler alert—she wins!). The show aims to inspire, educate, and empower an audience of women and girls to get out and knock doors, become a donor, take the leap to run for political office and build squads around each other to win.
