Two members of a white supremacist group known as The Order pleaded not guilty to charges in a racketeering indictment in U.S. District Court in Seattle. Randolph George Duey and Sharon K. Merki were among two dozen persons named in a 20-count indictment as members of the violent, right-wing, neo-Nazi splinter group of the Idaho-based Aryan Nations. Duey and Merki are charged with harboring Robert J. Mathews, 31, the leader of The Order, who died in a shoot-out with FBI agents last December. Duey also pleaded not guilty to weapons and robbery charges.
