A neo-Nazi threatened Jewish and Black journalists. He faces five years in prison.

According to the plea agreement, Garza first got involved with his alleged co-conspirators — Kaleb J. Cole, Cameron Brandon Shea and Taylor Ashley Parker-Dipeppe — in November, when Shea invited the group to a chat room to discuss a plot to threaten journalists. Shea called it “Operation Erste Saule,” a German term meaning “first pillar,” which Shea used to refer to the news media, according to court documents.

In the following months, the group accrued the addresses of Jewish journalists and activists and came up with a plan to mail them threatening fliers and deliver them in-person to their homes. Cole designed three posters. One said, “Two can play at this game,” with swastikas between each word, skeletons holding weapons and the words, “Death to pigs.” Other posters read: “Our patience has its limits” and “We are watching. We are no one. We are everyone. We know where you live. Do not f--- with us.”On Jan. 25, Garza and another individual, who is not named in court documents, drove to an apartment complex in Phoenix, where a member of the Arizona Association of Black Journalists lived.

“Garza intended that the poster cause the editor fear of property damage and personal harm,” the plea agreement said. “The editor did in fact become fearful upon discovering the poster.”The same day, other members of the group dropped off or mailed the threatening fliers to people in Florida and Washington state, according to the
