Last June, according to court documents, Jared Boyce crammed himself into the back of a U-Haul with his fellow members of Patriot Front, a white supremacist group, to protest an LGBTQ pride event in Idaho and slur attendees as groomers. Standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the hateful crew wearing matching khaki pants, its unlikely Boyce knew this would result in him eventually being sentenced to a year in prison for sexual exploitation of a minor.
Once the group pulled up to the event, they were all promptly arrested and charged with conspiracy to commit a riot. Less than a month later, police seized Boyce's phone. While they weren't actively searching for illegal sexual material on it, they found 22 photos of child sexual abuse material, or CSAM. According to court documents, these photos "involve children from toddlers to prepubescents performing sexual acts on adults or other children, as well as images of children exposing their genitals." The 28-year-old had also, police found, sent a picture of his penis to a 16-year-old girl.
"Dont believe the media," Boyce reportedly told his mother following his initial arrest. "We were just there because theyre grooming kids.
Boyce plead guilty to nine felony counts of sexual exploitation of a minor earlier this year. The Patriot Front member is hardly the first person connected to neo-Nazi groups to be caught with CSAM.
In just the past few months, at least two neo-Nazis in the UK were sentenced to time in prison for having or distributing CSAM. Luca Benincasa, a 20-year-old from Cardiff who was a cell leader for the neo-Nazi group Feuerkrieg Division, was sentenced to nine years for possession of documents likely to be useful to a terrorist, being a member of a banned group, and possessing indecent photos of children.

So far it's about 90 to 1, but they keep claiming it's because they get arrested and searched, etc. Well, stop committing crimes and you won't get arrested and searched!
