A man from Colorado has been arrested by the FBI after publishing a “hunting guide” online, which listed synagogue’s and mosque’s addresses in Montana.
Wesley Gilreath was later charged by prosecutors for the possession of hundreds of photos and videos of child porn.
According to Associated Press, Judge Schott Varholak wrote that investigators had found Mr Gilreath to have “numerous white supremacist documents and paraphernalia”.
The arrest is the third in two weeks, after police in Ohio have arrested James Reardon, suspected of planning to carry out a shooting at a Jewish community centre, and Conor Climo was arrested by the FBI in Las Vegas for allegedly wanting to attack Jews.
Speaking to the JC, Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the Anti-Defamation League, said the arrest of Mr Reardon was a “sad reminder of the continued rise of white nationalism and violent extremism that is occurring nationwide.”
Mr Gilreath had tried to purchase a gun at a store in Boulder, Colorado, but was denied.
He had also searched for a book on gaining children’s trust.
