Four members of a violent white supremacist gang and a member of the Hells Angels were found guilty Monday in Alaska of federal crimes including the gruesome murder of a fellow gang member. Convicted of murder in aid of racketeering, kidnapping, and assault charges were 1488 gang founder and leader Filthy Fuhrer, 45, who legally changed his name from Timothy Lobdell; Roy Naughton, 43; Glen Baldwin, 40; Colter O’Dell, 29; and Hells Angels member Craig King, 56. The Anchorage Daily News reported Fuhrer ordered gang members to commit violent kidnappings and assaults outside of prison, prosecutors said. The 1488s use Nazi-derived symbols, including a “patch” tattoo which depicts an Iron Cross superimposed over a swastika. The name of the gang is comprised of “14” and “88,” well known numbers in neo-Nazi and white supremacist symbology. Fuhrer was already serving a 19-year sentence inside Alaska’s maximum-security prison, Spring Creek Correctional Center in Seward, for attempting to kill an Alaska State Trooper.
