The Boston Globe reports:
A local member of a New England-based neo-Nazi group known for disrupting children’s “drag queen story hours” has been charged with possessing child pornography. Stephen Thomas Farrea, 34, a member of the Nationalist Social Club-131, had been arrested two years ago while distributing white nationalism leaflets in East Providence. Then, last month, the Portsmouth police got a tip that Farrea may be in possession of child pornography.
After getting a court-authorized warrant, detectives searched Farrea’s home at 37 Souza Way and seized multiple electronic devices. The police said that Farrea’s devices contained sexually explicit images of children. The masked, khaki-pants-wearing men have drawn attention for harassing people during “drag queen story hours,” spreading graffiti, leaflets, and banners praising white nationalism, and shouting slurs and waving Nazi flags.
