Christopher Gibbons and Tyrone Patten-Walsh, co-hosts of the “Lone Wolf Radio” podcast, were handed prison sentences in London for their explicit calls for violence against Prince Harry and his son.
The sentencing judge labeled the Neo-Nazi podcasters as “dedicated and unapologetic white supremacists,” emphasizing their role in promoting terrorism.
The pair, known for espousing racist, antisemitic, Islamophobic, homophobic, and misogynistic views, encouraged their podcast listeners to commit violent acts against ethnic minorities.
The Neo-Nazi podcasters, operating under aliases, claimed on their show that the white race faced potential “genocide” unless action was taken. They endorsed the hanging of so-called “race traitors,” particularly those engaged in interracial relationships, such as Prince Harry’s wife, Meghan, who is biracial.
During one episode, Gibbons advocated for the prosecution and judicial execution of Prince Harry, referring to his son, Archie, as a “creature” that “should be put down.”
Gibbons, 40, received an eight-year prison sentence, while Patten-Walsh, 34, was sentenced to seven years. Both will be subject to probationary measures for three years after their release, according to Scotland Yard.
Judge Peter Lodder, delivering the sentencing, highlighted the evidence indicating the duo’s desire for a world dominated by white people. He criticized their distorted thinking, arguing that they believed the white race had relinquished too much influence to various ethnic and social groups.
While acknowledging their entitlement to hold their beliefs, Lodder emphasized that their expressions had crossed the boundaries of acceptability in a civilized society.
The duo started “Lone Wolf Radio” in London, amassing 128 subscribers and around 9,000 views for its 21 episodes by June 2020. Their podcast glorified right-wing extremists involved in mass murders in Norway, Christchurch (New Zealand), and Charleston (S.C.). Additionally, they posted disturbing images, including a Nazi executing a Jewish man and the lynching of Nelson Mandela.
Gibbons faced additional convictions, including two counts of disseminating terrorist documents through his online neo-Nazi “radicalization” library, boasting more than 2,000 subscribers, according to authorities. They were convicted by a Kingston Crown Court jury in July on eight counts of encouraging terrorism.
