Nazicide In Riverside

The local papers say police are trying to make sense of the shooting death of a well-known white-supremacist leader, allegedly at the hands of his young son. But I'd say it's pretty clear - dad was a asshole racist, and that's reason enough to kill him.

Jeff Russell Hall (32) was Southwestern regional director of the Detroit-based National Socialist Movement when he wasn't a plumber in Riverside. Police found the badly injured Hall lying on a couch, who also died at the scene. After interviewing Hall's wife and five (!) children, police booked his ten-year-old son.

Aside from ruining the neighborhood with his Halloween parties, where he flew a swastika flag and guests wore KKK hoods, Hall recently failed to win a seat on his local water board. A rifle and handgun were recovered from the home, and it appeared Hall died of a single gunshot wound to the chest.

As for motive, looking into court records note an ugly divorce with ex-wife, Leticia Neal, where each accused the other of child abuse. Child Protective Services once removed the children from their mother's care and also reported her residence had no electricity or gas, maggots crawling on dishes, and curdled milk was in the babies' bottles. Yeah, sounds like a great family - a totally uninvolved mother and a Nazi father.
