. . .

Police arrested 33-year-old Joffre James Cross III, an associate of white supremacist William Henry Fears IV, on Saturday morning.

Cross's Facebook page shows connections with affiliates of The Right Stuff (TRS), a white nationalist podcast network. On multiple occasions, Cross shared posts and episode links of the TRS podcast "Fash the Nation." Posts from his account on the Russian social media site VK feature antisemitic slurs and photos of Nazi paraphernalia.

. . .

Police in Houston said Cross had two guns, Kevlar ballistic helmets and ceramic plate carriers at his home at the time of the arrest.

Cross is a former private in the Army’s U.S. 82nd Airborne Division at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. He was discharged after being arrested and charged in 2007 with selling narcotics and equipment stolen from the Army to an undercover FBI agent posing as a white supremacist.

Texas judge hikes bond on white supremacist William Fears

A Texas judge has increased the bond for a white supremacist charged with choking his girlfriend.

William Henry Fears IV, 30, posted bail Monday and was released from jail, hours after Judge Maria T. Jackson ordered him taken into custody.

. . .

Police say the trio pulled up in a silver Jeep at the corner of 34th Street and Archer Road, just blocks away from the venue Spencer spoke at, and struck up an argument with a group of protesters. Witnesses said the trio became belligerent, throwing out Nazi salutes and praising Adolf Hitler. Then the Fears brothers allegedly urged Tenbrink to shoot the protesters.

According to law enforcement, Tenbrink pulled his gun, fired one shot, missed the group and the trio sped off.
