Washington — Federal prosecutors in California unsealed an indictment Monday charging two men with leading an online group of white supremacists that maintained a list of high-profile targets to assassinate and urging group members to commit hate crimes.
A 37-page indictment filed on Sept. 5 in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California alleges that Dallas Erin Humber and Matthew Robert Allison led the group known as "Terrorgram," a network of channels, group chats and users on the app Telegram, that promote "white supremacist accelerationism." The ideology is described in court filings as "centered on the belief that the white race is superior," and that violence and terrorism are needed to spark a race war to speed up the collapse of government and the rise of the "white ethnostate."
Humber, 34, and Allison, 37, face 15 federal charges, including solicitation of a murder of a federal official, solicitation of a hate crime and conspiracy to provide material support for terrorists.
