NSC-131 member Stephen Farrea had been ordered to stay off the internet after police found sexually explicit pictures of children on electronic devices in his home. A neo-Nazi member is being held without bail for allegedly violating his bail in a child pornography case. Stephen Farrea, 35, a member of the Nationalist Social Club-131, was arrested in May 2024, after the Portsmouth police searched his home and allegedly found electronic devices with numerous sexually explicit images of children. Farrea was charged with possession of child pornography, but released on $5,000 surety bail. He was ordered not to be around children and not to use computers, smartphones, or the internet. However, someone using TikTok and Discord recently recognized Farrea from live videos and online chat groups and contacted the Portsmouth police. The witness told police that Farrea started appeared on the social media platforms earlier this year, with user names “thebearman07,” “flyingkites101,” and “otherg4079,” according to court records. The witness said that Farrea was involved in various discussion groups, including one with a racial slur, and appeared in videos and live chats, according to court records. The witness said that Farrea told her his real name and that he’d had “legal trouble” in Rhode Island, according to court records. After Googling Farrea’s name and seeing his mugshot from his arrest on child pornography, the witness took screenshots of Farrea and called the Portsmouth police, according to court records. Farrea, who’d moved to Jamestown, R.I., was arrested Tuesday on a warrant of violating his bail. Newport County Superior Court Judge Stephen Nugent ordered Farrea held without bail at the Adult Correctional Institutions pending a violation hearing on Aug. 22.
