The White House is curiously silent on the case of a Chicago judge whose husband and 89-year-old mother were murdered on Monday. It sure looks like white supremacist hate groups are involved:
White supremacist Matthew Hale, 33, who was convicted in April 2004 of soliciting an undercover FBI informant to kill her, is awaiting sentencing on murder solicitation and obstruction of justice.
Prosecutors charged that Hale was angry because Lefkow ruled that he could no longer use the name World Church of the Creator for his group since another organization had a copyright on that name.
Judge Lefkow received police protection after Hale was arrested in 2003, and a spokeswoman for the U.S. Marshal's Service said at Tuesday's news conference that a special protection detail also was assigned to the judge for several weeks last year in response to an unspecified threat. The detail was removed after an investigation, the spokeswoman said.
Hale had become notorious in 1999 when a follower, Benjamin Smith, went on a deadly shooting rampage in Illinois and Indiana. Targeting minorities, Smith killed two people, including former Northwestern University basketball coach Ricky Byrdsong, and wounded nine others before killing himself as police closed in.
Only when terrorists are dark-skinned and scary-looking; only when they practice a religion different from the President's, and only when the President's cronies can make money off of it is terrorism worthy of mention, I guess.
