White Supremacist Richard Butler Dies
Richard G. Butler, 86, the notorious white supremacist who founded the Aryan Nations and who once was called the “elder statesman of American hate,” was found dead Sept. 8 at his home in Hayden, Idaho.
Officials with the Kootenai County sheriff’s department in Idaho said in a statement that Mr. Butler apparently died in his sleep. No cause of death was reported.
The Aryan Nations lost its church and 20-acre compound in northern Idaho in 2000 after a $6 million civil judgment led to a bankruptcy filing. Butler moved into a house bought by a supporter in nearby Hayden.
Because of failing health, he had made few public appearances in recent years. In July, however, he rode in the back of a pickup truck that was dragging the flag of Israel during a parade of about 40 of his followers through downtown Coeur d’Alene, 30 miles east of Spokane, Wash.
Mr. Butler, an admirer of Adolf Hitler’s and of white supremacist religious teaching, moved to Idaho in the early 1970s, claiming later that he was impressed by its high percentage of white residents. To the dismay of many residents, the region became known as a place hospitable to white supremacist groups.
