White supremacist gang leader, one other escape Arkansas jail

[TexasTowelie]

LITTLE ROCK—The leader of a white supremacist gang that has been accused of a string of brutal tactics escaped a local Arkansas jail Wednesday along with another inmate, and authorities searching for the men said they're considered armed and dangerous.

The U.S. Marshals Service said authorities were searching for Wesley Gullett and Christopher Sanderson after the pair escaped from the Jefferson County jail in Pine Bluff, which is about 38 miles (60 kilometers) south of Little Rock. Marshals said they were notified about the pair's escape at 4:30 a.m. Wednesday, but did not know exactly when they escaped.

Gullett, 30, is among 54 members of the New Aryan Empire who have been indicted on federal charges and is listed in court documents as the gang's "outside" president who oversaw all gang activities by members who weren't in prison. Prosecutors say the gang has about 5,000 members.

Sanderson, 34, was being held in the jail on federal gun and drug charges.

Supervisory Deputy U.S. Marshal Kevin Sanders said authorities have no reason to believe the pair left the state and that multiple agencies across Arkansas are looking for them. Sanders declined to say how the two escaped.

1. I wonder what type of help they had escaping.

You know that there are plenty of law enforcement type who are sympathetic to these white supremacists.

2. Gullett has been caught. Other guy still on the run.

3. 5,000 members? Yikes. How many are already behind bars?

4. This is my back yard...

The very same fucks robbed my neighbor a few years ago. They apprehended them just miles from my house!

I'm seriously looking at moving. My community is under attack and my family is no longer safe here.

5. Some scary shit, alright. Maybe its time to rename Arkansas ...

Whathehelldelphia and hand it over to the "nationalists" and let them sink into a meth oblivion. Donnie Two Scoops can build his wall there. Its a damn shame you can't live in your own home in peace.

6. They call it "ozarkia"

I'm truly frightened.

One of the men was caught by my neighbor breaking into their garage. They had two motorcycles stolen and the cops did next to nothing.

The family decided to take turns sleeping out in the shop with a shotgun...the creep was in for a surprise when he came back... He was held at gunpoint until the cops came to arrest him.

I fear that they might have been out for revenge.

7. Shocking stuff. I try to think how it would be to sit armed in my shop waiting ...

for a meth addled creep just to try to live in peace and I just can't image it.

I wouldn't even know how to advise if I were asked if asked for advice.

This has to be a nightmare.
