A 21-year-old white supremacist from Lincoln has been found guilty of possession of terrorist instructional material. Ben John, 21, of Addison Drive, Lincoln, had become part of the Extreme Right Wing online and was found to have neo-Nazi ideologies when his hard drive was seized by police in January this year. The jury at Leicester Crown Court heard how forensic computer investigators found his hard drive containing the Anarchy Cookbook Version 2000, a radical publication which contains diagrams and instructions on how to construct explosive devices. The document was apparently aimed at people interested conducting guerrilla warfare in the United States.John, a criminology student at De Montfort University, had a wealth of white supremacist and anti-semitic material, as well as material relating to Satanist organisations. The court was told that he first came to the attention of officers in May 2018 after he penned a letter titled Eternal Front – Lincolnshire Fascist Underground. He was arrested as part of a pre-planned organisation carried out by Counter Terrorism Policing East Midlands on January 7, 2020.
