One of the most shocking details involves "F-9" -a field source affiliated with the neo-Nazi National Alliance. The SPLC allegedly paid this individualover $1.2 millionwhile F-9 was in aromantic relationship with an SPLC employee.

The DOJ alleges the SPLC usedfictitious entities and shell accounts, including fake "Rare Books" employment covers, to conceal payments totaling over $4 million.Donors were told the money would dismantle extremism - instead, it allegedly sustained rallies, recruitment, racist paraphernalia, and living expenses for extremists. The organization is accused of making payments amounting toover $1 million to a National Alliance affiliate, more than $300,000 to an Aryan Nations affiliate, $270,000 to a “Unite the Right” member, $140,000 to a former National Alliance chairman, $73,000 to former KKK members, and $19,000 to an American Front president and felon.

This ties into charges of wire fraud, false statements to banks, and conspiracy to commit concealment money laundering. Upon conviction, the SPLC could forfeit assets traceable to the alleged scheme.

The SPLC has denied wrongdoing, calling the program legitimate intelligence-gathering that has since been discontinued, and framing the case as political retaliation.
