USA. US: 89 White Supremacists Drug Traffickers Convicted to a Millennium in Jail
Prosecutors in Texas wrapped up Monday the largest prosecution in US history of white supremacist gang members, after convicting 89 for drug trade and the use of firearms. Prior to this case, only six of the 89 defendants had no previous convictions. The rest had already been convicted of a combined 736 crimes, including burglaries, sex and child abuse and murder. Fifteen were deemed "career offenders". (The Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP), USA, 15.08.2017)
