An indictment issued by a federal grand jury Wednesday in Salt Lake City alleges the three National Alliance members conspired to provoke fights with persons perceived to be "non-white" to make them afraid to work, live or appear in public in the Salt Lake City area. snip
The indictment says that Walker, Massey and Egbert intimidated and threatened individuals of minority background on Dec. 31, 2002, at O'Shucks, a Salt Lake City bar. The three then assaulted a Mexican-American male, according to the indictment, "because he was and had been enjoying employment" - a federally protected activity.
And on March 15, 2003, Massey and an unnamed individual threatened and assaulted a Native American man at the Port of Call bar in Salt Lake City, the indictment alleges. snip
The National Alliance sparked controversy when it bought space on a billboard in 2004 on State Stree near downtown Salt Lake City and posted the message "Securing the Future for European Americans." The organization complains of "out-of-control" immigration by non-whites, an alleged Jewish monopoly of the mass media and political correctness in education.
