SOUTHERN POVERTY LAW CENTER BOMBSHELL: Chief Officer Charged in $1.2 Million Scheme to Pay Neo-Nazi Informants, Steal Files and Dupe Donors

When I think of the lives the Southern Poverty Law Center has destroyed – good, decent Americans whose only “crime” was defending freedom – and how Democrats and their media propaganda machine amplified their every lie, smear, and defamation, I am overcome with revulsion at the sheer injustice of it all.

Ex-Southern Poverty Law Center CFO charged in brazen scheme to secretly pay $1.2M to white supremacist groups

WASHINGTON — A former Southern Poverty Law Center finance officer was charged Wednesday for her leading role in having the left-wing nonprofit secretly pay informants to participate in white supremacist groups.

Heidi Beirich of Palm Springs made her initial appearance Wednesday in federal court in Riverside, California, according to her attorney, Michael Proctor. CNN reported she had been arrested earlier that day.

A 26-page superseding indictment naming Beirich, who was first unmasked by The Post in June, was later filed in the Middle District of Alabama.

“There is a new indictment that includes the former CFO of SPLC,” Attorney General Todd Blanche confirmed at an unrelated news conference at DOJ headquarters, adding that there had been “an arrest made,” though Beirich’s attorney said she appeared voluntarily in court.

SPLC boss funneled $1.2 million to lover in neo-Nazi group — pair even had joint bank account
FBI Director Kash Patel said Beirich “was at the center of our ongoing investigation into SPLC,” which found the nonprofit “knowingly misled donors, who believed their money was being used to dismantle violent extremist organizations – when in fact, part of those donations were instead being used to pay senior leadership within those extremist groups.”

Wednesday’s superseding indictment accused Beirich of helping to funnel $1.2 million in SPLC donor money to an informant in the white supremacist group National Alliance — who was also purportedly her lover.

The June 2 indictment had named the “person who would become Director of the SPLC’s Intelligence Project” as “Employee-2.” Beirich served in that role from 2012 to 2019.

In 2014, that employee paid off an informant known as F-9 to break into National Alliance headquarters and steal 25 boxes of documents — only to later use the materials to author an article for SPLC’s blog “Hatewatch.”

The article, “Chaos at the Compound,” is still available online. The indictment notes that it was used “to solicit more donations” for SPLC.

Over a 20-year period, F-9 received more than $1.2 million from SPLC donor funding.

Another informant known as F-39 was also paid $6,000 in donor cash “to falsely take responsibility for the burglary,” per the indictment.

The Post previously identified F-39 as ex-National Alliance member Randolph Dilloway, a nearly deaf accountant who had belonged to several other hate groups before joining the neo-Nazi organization.

Beirich, who joined the SPLC in 1999, is the first employee of the Alabama-based nonprofit to have been named as a participant in the wire fraud, bank fraud and money laundering conspiracy.

“I knew it was that fat, ugly hog Heidi Beirich,” National Alliance chairman William White Williams, 78, previously told The Post from his home in east Tennessee, confirming the indictment’s descriptions.
