Racist "Reverend" Arrested - Synagogue Trial Jurors Threatened

A racist “Reverend” has been arrested after social media posts threatening both witnesses and jurors in the recent Tree of Life synagogue shooting trial. The killer was eventually sentenced to death.

He sent emails to the media…

” Remember, jurors, we WILL be watching and we WILL be taking pictures of ALL cars and people who leave the courthouse," Lloyd allegedly wrote in a May 17 email to news outlets, according to an affidavit. Lloyd insisted it was "100% LEGAL" to photograph and surveil witnesses and members of the jury, the affidavit said.”

Another genius like that Idaho idiot. Yeah, the cops are probably going to visit you when you do stuff like that.

Good CBS News article with details and:

Article from 2017:

Pittsburgh area white supremacist apparently resurfaces in Mount Lebanon in wake of Charlottesville
Posted By Ryan Deto on Fri, Aug 18, 2017 at 5:51 PM

Pittsburgh-area resident Hardy Lloyd has more than a decade of involvement with white-supremacist organizations and a history of violence. In the past, he has posted online an admiration for Adolf Hitler. According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, he bragged online about killing a woman, after a jury acquitted him of said murder.

And Lloyd seems to be back in Pittsburgh’s public sphere, apparently prompted by last week’s violence in Charlottesville, Va. On Aug. 14, just two days after the tragic events that unfolded in Charlottesville, a man who appears to be Lloyd was spotted and videotaped walking through the crowd of protesters that meets weekly in front of U.S. Rep. Tim Murphy’s (R-Upper St. Clair) office in Mount Lebanon. A participant in the protest, Mike Weis, sent the video to the Pittsburgh City Paper.

. . .

A few weeks after Trump’s election-day victory, a swastika was carved into the mulch of a playground at Washington Elementary School in Mount Lebanon, and someone painted the n-word on football equipment at Jefferson Middle School. After these incidents late last year, and the apparent spotting of a white supremacist in Mount Lebanon, the Mount Lebanon resident who spoke to CP is anxious. “When you see that as a mom or parent, then see some jackass walking by giving the Hitler salute, it scares you,” said the resident.

Bill Ankrom, a co-owner of Capital Real Estate Construction in Dormont, saw the screenshots of the video sent to CP of the man who appears to be Lloyd on Facebook, and instantly made a connection to Lloyd. CP corresponded via Facebook chat with Ankrom, who owns buildings in Dormont’s business district, where he said his tenants have had many encounters with Lloyd. Ankrom said that Lloyd used to live in a building in the northern section of Dormont’s business district. He has video of a man who appears to be Lloyd vandalizing his property, including gluing and damaging gate locks in the early morning hours.
