White supremacist gets life in prison for murder
A white supremacist gang member was sentenced Friday to life in prison without the possibility of parole for murdering a fellow gang member who had appeared on television to discuss gang secrets.
Jacob Anthony Rump, 30, was convicted in the 2002 murder of Scott Miller, one of Public Enemy Number One’s founding members, who had appeared on a Fox 11 News broadcast focusing on the gang.
Another defendant convicted in the case, Michael Allen Lamb, 32, will be tried in the penalty phase in February, and a third defendant, Billy Jo Johnson, 44, is scheduled for a preliminary hearing Oct. 26.
