Judge Rules Aryan Nations Negligent
From Times Wire Reports
The Aryan Nations white supremacist group was negligent in the operation of its security force, U.S. District Judge Charles W. Hosack ruled. The move clears the way for a Coeur D’Alene, Idaho, jury to assess punitive and compensatory damages should it side with plaintiffs Victoria Keenan and her son, Jason, in their civil rights case against the group. The Keenans are seeking unspecified damages for a 1998 incident in which they say they were assaulted by Aryan Nations security guards.
