1529: Carter Miles Ledoux

Carter Miles Ledoux

Carter Miles Ledoux of Lake Charles, Louisiana, is a member of a white supremacist group that the Department of Justice has identified as a Nihilist Violent Extremist (NVE) organization. After a minor girl expressed support for interracial relationships on social media, Ledoux allegedly led a conspiracy with the NVE group he belongs to to stalk, harass, threaten, and swat her and her family.

They made a phone call to the police claiming that someone in the home had pipe bombs and would kill anyone who came.

He was arrested by the FBI and charged with stalking, threatening, and “swatting” her and her family.

After his arrest, federal agents found child sexual exploitation material on his phone, material that even included toddlers. A subsequent indictment charged him with possession of child sexual abuse material.

While Ledoux does not appear to be registered to vote, his membership in a white supremacist NVE makes him part of the support groups that threaten Trump’s opposition and apply pressure in response to his Truth Social posts. They are his “shock troops” that he used for the January 6th insurrection and whom he will use in the future when he fears losing power. He may not be in a position of power or truth, but he and the white supremacist NVE are integral to the MAGA movement.

Both indictments are below.

1484: Joseph Burkhart

Joseph Burkhart

Joseph Burkhart was a Republican at-large city council member in Bellevue, Ohio, when he was arrested in September, 2025. At the time, he was indicted on seven charges. In October, a grand jury indicted him on twenty-two charges, eighteen of which are felonies. At the time of his indictment, he was the Chair of the public safety committee. He remained on the November general election ballot in Sandusky County. Bellevue lies at the intersection of Erie, Huron, Seneca, and Sandusky counties. That is why he was arrested by Huron County deputies and is on the Sandusky County general election ballot. He got 11% of the vote.

Police were called out to a domestic incident where Burkhart is said to have broken in to a home. They called in the Huron County Sheriff’s Office as Burkhart was on the City Council and this created a conflict of interest, or at least the appearance. The original charges included strangulation, burglary, and drug possession. (He ran from police who saw him tossing drugs as he ran.) The current charges are:

  • Three counts of menacing by stalking, a 4th-degree felony;
  • Three counts of drug possession, a 1st-degree misdemeanor;
  • Two counts of tampering with evidence, a 3rd-degree felony;
  • Two counts of aggravated drug possession, a 5th-degree felony;
  • Two counts of telecommunications harassment, a 1st-degree misdemeanor;
  • One count of aggravated burglary, a 1st-degree felony;
  • One count of strangulation, a 2nd-degree felony;
  • One count of grand theft when the property is a firearm or dangerous ordnance, a 3rd-degree felony;
  • One count of strangulation, a 3rd-degree felony;
  • Strangulation, a 4th -degree felony, for one count;
  • Theft of Drugs, a 4th-degree felony, for one count;
  • One count of obstructing official business, a 5th-degree felony;
  • One count of theft, a 5th-degree felony;
  • One count of drug trafficking, a 5th-degree felony; and
  • One count of assault, a 1st-degree misdemeanor.

The charge for strangulation notes that the person was either a family member or a romantic connection. The menacing by stalking charged noted he has a history of violence.

1473: Silas Shelton

Silas Shelton

Silas Shelton is still listed as the pastor at Blanchester Community Ministries. He is out on $250,000 bail for an array of crimes against children including rape and sexual battery. He was indicted for abusing one child, a member of his congregation, over the course of six years but police expect that there will be other victims as that is common with most sexual predators.

Shelton is an anti-gay bigot who has attended school board meeting to advocate against books that have gay characters and has said the Pride flag makes him sick. At one board meeting, he said, “I don’t think kids should ever question their sexuality. I don’t think kids should ever explore their sexuality. I don’t think any of that stuff ever ought to be in our school” Meanwhile he has been charged with grooming and raping a minor child.

He is charged with multiple counts of rape, gross sexual imposition, and unlawful sexual contact with a minor, as well as sexual battery, arson, aggravated arson, telecomm harassment and menacing by stalking.

1443: Cory Mills

Cory Mills

Cory Mills is a Republican Congressman from Florida. He founded an international arms supplier making him a literal international arms dealer, like most of the villains in spy movies. He is embroiled in controversies over alleged lying about his military service, potential self-dealing with the millions in government contracts his company has gotten since he went to Congress, and potential ethics violations by misrepresenting his income in mandatory disclosures. He’s also been accused of violence, harassment, sextortion, and making threats by several women.

In February, 2025, his girlfriend called police alleging he assaulted her, pushing her violently out a door. Bruises were observed and an arrest warrant was prepared but not signed. The woman later said the bruises were from a medical condition and retracted her claim that he violently pushed her. He denied any violence and with her retracting her claims, no arrest was made.

While the woman was still telling police about the attack, she played a message from Mills telling her to lie about the source of the bruises. Initially Mills admitted their disagreement became physical. It was all recanted by both of them. Instead the DC police are investigating their investigation.

In August, his former girlfriend who is Miss United States filed for a restraining order and made a criminal complaint against Mills for harassment, stalking, and threatening to release intimate photos and videos, and threatening violence against any future boyfriends, etc. She had been his girlfriend for a few years but broke it off after she learned of his affair with the women who called the police in February. Since then he has sent dozens of threatening messages, even one that seemed to threat her mother.

Three other women affirmed they had similar experiences with Mills.

1291: Solomon Peña

Solomon Peña

Solomon Peña was given a 20th chance when the nineteen-times-convicted candidate was named the Republican nominee for the 14th District in the New Mexico House of Representatives. He was trounced losing by 48 points. Of course, he followed the Trump playbook and claimed the vote was rigged. He attended the January 6 rally, but it not known to have participated in the insurrection.

He went to commissioners homes and told them not to certify the election. When they did, he and the people he hired are believed to have fired on their homes, one time with a machine gun. They did this even though there were children and other family members in the home. At one person’s home, they shot up the room of a ten-year-old girl who woke up with dust from the bullet passing through sheetrock on her face.

Peña and his co-conspirators were indicted and the people he hired pled guilty and are expected to testify against Peña in his upcoming trial. But then Peña has now been indicted for hiring contract killers to murder the people he allegedly hired to shoot at Democrats. They are going to be testifying against him in his upcoming trial, so he wanted them killed.

Peña was convicted on March 19, 2025, on all thirteen counts. He is to be sentenced in July, 2025.

1283: Jon Stone

Jon Stone

Jon Stone is a New Hampshire State Representative and a former Claremont City Councillor. He also holds appointed positions in Claremont city government. He owns a gun shop called Black Op Arms. He is also a former police officer.

He lost his job on the Claremont police force after he was investigated for an inappropriate relastionship with a sixteen-year-old girl that started when she was fifteen. He had been seeing the girl for months, claiming she was a drug informant, though he never provided any information from her. While there is no evidence of him molesting her, the girl said they were planning to have sex when she turned seventeen. He was ordered not to contact her, but ignored the order. He was suspended.

He responded to this investigation by threatening a mass shooting of his fellow officers and by threatening to rape the police chief’s wife and children and then kill him. He was investigated for this and was found to have lied during the investigation. He was terminated. Appealed and by mutual agreement, he was allowed to resign and to have his records expunged. They were, but were retained elsewhere and brought out after a court battle by reporters for their release.

Both the investigation into his relationship with the minor child and into his threats of violence concluded that he was lying to investigators and both recommended he be fired.

So he got a job as a prison guard and opened up a gun store. Then was elected to City Council and to the State House of Representatives. Since the information was released, he has been removed from his committee positions by the Clarement City Council.

Valley News Staff Writer
CLAREMONT — A state legislator who boasts of being “tough on crime” when he was a Claremont cop in the
early 2000s openly talked about killing the city’s police chief and raping his wife, and staging a mass shooting
at the police station, according to the officer’s employment records that were ordered released by the New
Hampshire Supreme Court.
The records also detail how Jonathan Stone, a state legislator representing a House district made up of
Claremont and eight other communities, was found to have repeatedly socialized with a 16-year-old girl while
on-and-off duty, including discussions about going to bars together when she was old enough to drink legally.
The revelations are contained in Stone’s police department disciplinary records which he fought for years to
keep private.
Last month, the state’s highest court ruled Stone’s records are not exempt from public disclosure.
According to his file, Stone failed a polygraph exam administered to him by investigators, and investigators
said his answers to specific questions were marked by “selective memory” as in some instances he gave
detailed answers while to others he replied, “I don’t recall that” or “not that I recall.”
The documents — portions of which are redacted to protect witnesses’ identities — paint a portrait of a police
officer who repeatedly threatened violence against his colleagues. Fellow police officers expressed concern
Stone could go “postal,” with one even telling investigators that following a confrontation with Stone he
stayed up “late at night with a loaded shotgun” listening for cars, afraid that Stone would attack him and his
family.
“If he gets fired, people are afraid he will go postal,” one detective told investigators during the 2006
investigation that had been opened into Stone’s behavior. Top brass of the Claremont Police Department had
been informed that Stone was threatening violent attacks against then-police chief Alexander Scott, his family
and other police officers.
“Generally, people think he is crazy and wonder why he is a police officer,” the investigation paraphrased the
detective reporting.
This week, Stone’s attorney, Peter Decato, noted that Stone had resigned under a “negotiated agreement”
with the city and that statements made by fellow police officers reporting Stone’s behavior when he was a
police officer have never been adjudicated.
“Jon Stone’s personnel records go back 17-plus years. They are full of unproven ‘factual allegations,’ ” Decato
said via email on Monday. “Whatever is disclosed should have a very large asterisk next to it.”
“The City of Claremont did not terminate Jon’s employment; rather, the City of Claremont found it to their
advantage to enter into an agreement with Jon. As a result of that agreement, Jon resigned. The advantage to
the City of Claremont is that they didn’t have to prove what is written in these records,” Decato said.
Stone did not respond to an email seeking comment on Monday.
Democrats, hoping to leverage the tawdry revelations in Stone’s personnel records to flip the slim GOP
majority in the New Hampshire House, wasted no time in denouncing Stone, a Republican who in the past
has expressed support for GOP front-runner Donald Trump, as unfit to serve in public office.
“The disturbing report on State Representative Jon Stone’s dangerous and out-of-control behavior — which he
tried to hide from the public for years — raises serious concerns about Stone’s position on the House
Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committee and leaves no doubt that Stone is unfit to serve the people of
Claremont,” Ray Buckley, chairman of the New Hampshire Democratic Party, said in a statement on Monday.
The revelations about the internal investigation into Stone quickly went viral across social media over the
weekend after Damien Fisher, the journalist who challenged city officials to release Stone’s records under the
state’s right-to-know law and who was later joined in his legal fight by the American Civil Liberties Union of
New Hampshire and the Manchester Union Leader newspaper, was the first to report the contents of the
records via InDepthNH on Friday evening.
Scott, who retired from the Claremont Police Department in 2017 and is now an attorney in Claremont, said
on Monday that “the documents speak for themselves. I really have nothing to add.”
He noted that, “this is something that happened 18 years ago.”
The 2006 investigation, launched after a Claremont Police Department captain reported to his superiors that
he had received “information from a source who requested to remain anonymous,” that Stone was making
statements to fellow officers about killing the chief and assaulting his wife in addition to “terrorizing
comments about backing a truck up to the door of the Police Department and killing employees inside.”
Stone had “spoken of a list” of people to kill in addition to a list of people to call to warn them to stay away
from the office; he was observed by numerous department personnel to act as if he was screwing on a
silencer attachment to an assault rifle, which was seen as a threatening gesture, the investigation said.
The internal investigation was based on interviews with 18 people, 15 of whom were Claremont Police
Department personnel. Of those 15, the vast majority told investigators that they had heard Stone
threatening physical violence and it unsettled them.
All the Claremont Police Department witnesses are identified by name in the investigation report.
The personnel records released by the city are comprised of two investigations: one into Stone’s comments
made to colleagues threatening violence; and a second into Stone’s socializing both through texting, phone
calls and meetings with a 16-year-old girl who was being referred to as a “rat” by schoolmates who were
aware of her relationship of Stone.
Stone met the teenager numerous times, investigators found. The teenager, when interviewed by
investigators, denied the more salacious rumors about the relationship that were circulating among high
school students.
But acknowledged “a plan they have when she turns 18. The plan for when she turns 18 is that she and
Officer Stone would go to Canada where it will be legal for her to drink. They have also spoke about going to a
bar when she turns 21,” the investigation found.
In his interview with police investigators, Stone acknowledged that he talked with the teenager girl frequently
— sometimes up to an hour or more — but said every time they met she was always with friends and they
never met alone.
When investigators asked Stone about the nature of his relations with the 16-year-old girl, he described it as a
friendship. He said the plan to go with her to Canada to drink when she turns 18 was the girl’s idea and that
he “plays along or agrees with it with laughter,” the report said.
“When asked if going to a bar when a 16-year-old person turns 18 is an odd conversation, (Stone said) that it’s
just a general conversation, nothing set down,” investigators reported.
Investigators, however, reported that Stone and the girl had conversations about sex with the girl sharing
with Stone details about her sex life and “being cheated on while being in a relationship,” according to the
internal report.
Stone also acknowledged that the teenage girl had told him she loved him but that Stone “stated that when
she talks like that it is more as a friend and it does not concern him, but then admitted she may have a crush
on him,” the investigation said.
Both investigations — the one into Stone’s threats of violence and the other into his relationship with the
teenage girl — concluded that Stone had not been truthful in his responses to investigators’ questions and
recommended his “removal from office,” according to the documents. Contact John Lippman at

1242: Matt Hall

Matt Hall

Rep. Matt Hall is the Michigan State House Republican Leader and an active participant in the autogolpe for Trump. His rise to that position has drawn scrutiny on his past with allegations of threats and domestic violence, perhaps scrutiny that should have come much earlier in his career.

In 2001, he emailed death threats to another student. They are shocking. I wonder what he means by “your kind.” Not for nothing, he adds “The South with rise again.”

YOU BETTER NOT GO TO THE CHRISTMAS PARTY TOMORROW NIGHT! JUST A WORD OF ADVICE!! THE SOUTH WILL RISE AGAIN AND WE DON’T LIKE YOUR KIND TREATING LADIES LIKE [redacted] WITHOUT DIGNITY. SHE IS A FINE LADY YOU DON’T NEED TO BE SAYING SHIT ABOUT HER! WE ARE GOING TO IMPOSE OUR SOUTHERN WAYS ON YOU! I’VE GOT A SHOTGUN RIFLE AND I JUST PUT A BULLET IN IT WITH YOUR NAME ON IT!

In another, he told the student: “YOU HAD BETTER WATCH OUT!! WE DON’T LIKE YOUR KIND HERE IN WC! YOU WON’T FEEL VERY CROMBIE WHEN WE ARE DONE WITH YOU! BY YOU BLOCKING US ON IM WE ARE JUST MORE ANGRY!!! CLOSING TIME IS COMING SOON! BETTER SAY YOUR PRAYERS!!! STAY AWAY FROM [redacted]”
Michigan Live

More recently, in 2019, police were called out to a reported domestic violence incident and he was also accused of interfering in a 911 call. He was not charged. He and his girlfriend were taking her car to a sports betting place when he discovered he had not brought his money. Turning around to go back for it, she took a wrong turn. He began driving so fast she asked him to slow down, but he was worried he would not get his bets in on time. She tried to record him and he grabbed her phone out of her hands and smashed the screen. She called 911, he hung up and refused to answer when 911 called back.

When the police came to her house, they suggested she stay somewhere else for the night. She forwarded a couple recordings to them and they sent an arrest warrant request to the prosecutor’s office. However, the next day the woman said she did not want him prosecuted and that she overreacted to his fast driving.
