Michael Alan Jones is an insurrectionist and joined the Proud Boys on January 6th. He is also a member of the Patriot Front. When police pulled him and a colleague over for failing to make a left-hand-turn signal they found an arsenal in the car.

Francis Joseph (Frank) Collin founded the National Socialist Party of America. He also molested young boys and took pictures. Somehow it is just perfect that the founder of the National Socialist party went to prison for child molestation, or “indecencies with boys.”
Matthew Foster was the District Attorney for Washington and Hancock counties in Maine. A Republican, he was defeated in his run for a third term in October 2022 perhaps because he was caught in a life during a candidate forum.

A social worker was sent to do an interview but she did not cooperate. That was when he began to molest her. This continued for five years until she was 19. He was able to maintain control via surveillance cameras and GPS monitoring, limiting her social connections, even able to control her after she went away to school.
Kenneth Daniel was the pastor of First Baptist Church in Chalkville, Alabama. After the Southern Baptist Convention released the SBC Sexual Abuse Task Force report in May 2022, he wrote, “I have served on staff in churches within the SBC over 38 years. I agree … this is tragic to victims and heartbreaking. Cases needed to be investigated. My question is about … releasing more information than necessary. … There is sexual misconduct in every profession, even churches. How do churches benefit from over exposure of poor leadership? Churches are struggling to keep doors open. How are we to evangelize and bring people to Christ?”
He was also a child molester.
