Patriot Front loses in court again. This time it's in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to the tune of just over $2.7 million.
This case goes back to 2022 when Patriot Front decided to show up in Boston to be dicks. In the process of being dicks, they attacked an unsuspecting black musician. The man was just walking down the street and these neo-Nazis assaulted him. Of course, Boston police looked into it, determined it was probably racially motivated, but it's Boston PD, so they didn't care.
The victim chose to seek justice with a civil case against Patriot Front and its leader Thomas Rousseau. Rousseau was served in this case, failed to respond and now got hit with this $2.7 million judgement. Legal fees are on top of this amount.
Will the plaintiff collect? It won't be easy, but it's enough money that it might be worth a lawyer's time to check in on Rousseau and see if he opened a bank account or bought something of value. I doubt he'll ever collect a paycheck. He seems like the unemployable type. He gets money somehow.
The suspect has no prior record. Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms are charging the defendant with federal firearm charges for allegedly deploying molotov cocktails at Tesla dealership
If the cops aren't lying, this is a good example for what not to do if you don't want to get arrested.
The Neo-Nazi group leader Thomas Rousseau has a big fat judgement hanging over his head for the rest of his life - $2.7 million.
