Oh sure, target the guy with the Hitler mustache that goose-steps through neighbourhoods. That's profiling, man. Story out of Lacey, New Jersey:
A suspected white supremacist linked to a 1995 murder was arrested on weapons charges after police stumbled across him and another man – and a cache of guns and ammunition – during a search of the Pinelands.
Officers from Lacey and Waretown police departments, State Police, Ocean County Sheriff's Office, and state fish and wildlife officers traversed 60 miles of woods in Lacey and Ocean Sunday, looking for “criminal activity, trespassing and off-road vehicle violations,” Lacey police Chief David Paprota wrote in a prepared statement. Around 1 p.m. officers found 42-year-old Bruce J. Post III in the woods off Bryant Road.
Post “was wearing combat gear and gave indications of possible white-supremacist involvement,” said Paprota. “The officers then discovered an AK-47, a Walther P38 9 mm handgun, eight 30-round high-capacity magazines and one 100-round drum magazine, and various forms of ammunition at the scene within the woods.”
Post is a felon who was sentenced to five years in prison for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and has twice been convicted of hindering prosecution, according to court records. Lacey police charged Post with illegal possession of a weapon by a felon, illegal possession of a handgun, illegal possession of an assault weapon and two counts of illegal possession of prohibited magazines. He was held on a $400,000 bond.
Post is tied to the 1995 murder of Andrew Whited. His younger brother Joseph is still in prison for the crime. The murder was the subject of an Investigation Discovery documentary titled "Evil Kin: Brothers in Arms" which also reported that the elder Post liked to dress in a Nazi uniform and goose-step around his childhood neighborhood.
