Virginia police sergeant suspended after being linked to White Nationalism

[Bourbon]

A Virginia police sergeant who was helping oversee protests of Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam (D) has been suspended for alleged ties to white nationalism.

The Virginia Division of Capitol Police said in a statement on Wednesday that Sgt. Robert A. Stamm was placed on administrative leave after the division became aware of a possible violation of its policy. He will remain on leave pending the results of an investigation. “There is a review policy in place, and we will follow that policy,” Col. Anthony S. Pike, the division’s chief, said.

The New York Times reported Thursday that an anti-fascist group identified the alleged links between Stamm and white nationalism.

A police official told the newspaper that the suspension was handed out to Stamm after the division became aware of a blog post by Antifascist of the Seven Hills titled, "VA Capitol Police Shows Affinity with White Nationalist Groups."

The blog post included several pictures of Stamm with tattoos, flags and banners that the group said were symbols and images linked to Nazis and white supremacists.

"As detailed in this document, Officer Rob Stamm has explicit, overt ties to a white nationalist pagan organization, and an affinity for imagery, tattoos and Facebook pages associated with nazis and white supremacists," the post reads.

Activists link Capitol Police sergeant to white nationalism




RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Anti-fascist activists in Virginia have published allegations linking a Virginia Capitol Police sergeant to white nationalists. He's since been placed on paid leave.

Citing a Wednesday release, The Richmond Times-Dispatch reports the Virginia Division of Capitol Police is investigating whether Sgt. Robert A. Stamm violated unspecified policy.

On Tuesday, the Antifascists of Seven Hills published links to Stamm's social media accounts and described his tattoos. Their blog post said social media activity suggests Stamm follows the Asatru Folk Assembly, which the Southern Poverty Law Center describes as a hate group blending northern European paganism and ethnocentrism.

The anti-fascist group says Stamm caught their attention while monitoring protests calling for Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam's removal over a racist photo in his 1984 yearbook.

not sure why people are so surprised these Virginians are racist bastards, even many Dems as we've seen. Virginia is the heart of the Confederacy and except for up around DC it's full of Trump sucking rednecks. hell probably half of the population has done black face at one time or another, southern tradition

You are correct, the majority of the State is still full of good ole boys with a southern identity, and given a lot of this stuff dates back decades, it really isn't surprising
