Sheppard and his co-defendant Steve Whittle have gone on the run after guilty verdicts came in against both of them on Friday. According to their barrister, Shepperd, another paedophile linked to the British People's Party, also slit his wrists over the weekend.
Watmough, who was sat at the rear of the court on Friday when the verdicts were read out burst into tears and began sobbing. With Sheppard's prosecution having huge implications for Watmough's 'Redwatch' and 'Blood & Honour / Combat 18' sites, and possible conspiracy to pervert the course of justice charges pending, we hope there'll be plenty more tears in the Watmough household to come.
A full report will follow.

Default SHOCK AT LEEDS RACE TRIAL
BPP members and supporters in court to support the defendants (as well as everyone else connected with the case) were shocked at the Sheppard/Whittle Race trial in Leeds when Simon and Steve didn't appear and a warrant was issued for their arrest.
More news as we get it.

Latest news is that sentencing will take place on the 28th July. Shepperd (at least) can expect a good few years.

As for the BPP report on yesterday's events, written by the only idiot left after White and Watmough had been taken away, it's pure fantasy and doesn't even make sense. The nutter had to be warned by the judge himself. Why would the prosecutor demand a re-trial, Sheppard and Whittle were convicted?

16.07.2008 08:05
Sheppard and Whittle are being held by the INS (the American Immigration and Naturalization Service) at LAX (Los Angeles International Airport) after claiming political asylum on arrival. Help from local comrades is being organised in terms of solidarity, and legal advice.
For the sake of their reputations, please point out on various news groups and forums that Sheppard and Whittle have made a carefully calculated decision to claim asylum in the USA after receiving written confirmation from the US Courts that their writings (which are posted on a web server in Torrance, California and have never appeared in hard copy form) are perfectly legal under American law, and protected in the highest degree by the First Amendment.
The Crown Court in Leeds has asserted an unprecedented long arm jurisdiction to take cognizance of acts done in a foreign country Sheppard and Whittle may be eccentric, but they are not cowards. The rationale of their escape was to set a precedent for revisionists and others persecuted under oppressive laws, and cause the maximum embarrassment to the British government by what will inevitably be a long drawn out and hard fought case in the USA.
We should add that the Heretical Two voluntarily surrendered on arrival, so as not to enter the USA under false pretences, and made a deliberate decision to go to the country where their writings had been published and make a political protest, rather than luxuriate on a beach in Thailand.

On the paedophile issue mentioned above, certain facts will come to light in the future, but it's probably unwise to air too much now if Shepperd is to face re-trial on some of the charges on which the jury couldn't agree. A poster above refers to Shepperd's autobiographical ramblings about the issue, and that is something he put into the public domain himself. As with paedophile Martyn Gilleard the Fash are going to end up looking very stupid supporting Shepperd.
Like Kev Watmough, Shepperd is absolutely terrified of returning to prison, and when certain facts come out at his sentencing he's likely to have little support from his fellow Nazis.
Watmough, predictably, is obviously at large once again. We wonder if White was so lucky. Doubtful.

IT'S NOT BIG.................... AND IT'S NOT CLEVER!!!
They'll not take any notice. With the mentality of little kids, trying to get commonsense out of BPP and BNP dickheads is virtually impossible.
Now I've got that out of the way, I'll progess onto the main topic of trolls.
FOUR TYPES OF INDYMEDIA FASCIST TROLLS (From my politics doctorate thesis)
In the War Against Neo-Nazi Trolls, we must first distinguish between four different sorts of trolls: -
TROLL TYPE ONE: - CONFRONTATIONAL TROLLS ("Concerned Of Airstrip One", or any other thick-as-pigshite blatant neo-nazi twat calling themself "88" who wasn't born in 1988, and thinks they can pollute Indymedia with blatant racism and Hitler worship. There's no hiding their opinions under a bushell. They really enjoy hugging the limelight, showing signs of Attention Deficit Disorder. Common Example= Watmough himself)
TROLL TYPE TWO: - SUBVERSIVE TROLLS (These subspecies of low-intelligence lowlife pretend anti-fascists who somehow twist and contort their subterfuge to support fascism in a round and about way: i.e., "I hate the BNP but I hate leftwing hyprocrisy more........" Alweays keen to slip in casual anti-semitism and off-topic references to Israel, these particular sort of braindead trolls have been around since Indymedia began, and are an example of how low the British far right will scrape the bottom of the barrel.
TROLL TYPE THREE: - AGENT PROVOCATEUR TROLLS (Slightly more braincells per "nationalist" (AKA Nazi) trolls, as they are not so much seeking to pollute Indymedia with hate, or subvert Indymedia with twisted logic, but they are dangerous in anti-fascist PR terms, as they are seeking to undermime the entire anti-fascist movement by painting anti-racists as being more violent than the nazis. They take their inspiration from the state agents employed by Maggie Thatcher's "black propaganda units" which paid people to attack the police lines alongside striking miners, to allow the police to retiliate with unprecidented force.
TROLL TYPE FOUR: - THE MISINFO TROLL (Does what it says on the can, the aim of the Misinfo Troll is to undermime confidence in a particular internet platform, and once again, is also a state tactic not just used in anti-fascist websites and chatrooms. The rumours about the two missing neo-Nazis travelling to Thailand is straight out of the MI5 and MI6 notebook, and sometimes Misinfo Trolls are used to pave the way for other types of nazi trolls to step in and stir things around. Thus, when commentating on the total and utter bullshit left by Misinfo Trolls, Confrontational Trolls (Type One) step in and claim what is really the work of misinfo trolls is "the desperate work of divide and conquer anti-fascists clutching at straws".
The fact that these sorts of trolls work together, may suggest they are inetrchangeable, and often the work of one or two sad bastards (without girlfriends).
So beware of everything on Indymedia, folks.
WATCH OUT...., THERE'S A TROLL ABOUT!!!
Troll Fragmentor!
A Question
16.07.2008 13:54
Is there a personality trait that demands that members of the far right must be social misfits or is that par for the course.
There again, I guess its self-explanatory - Hitler was the biggest ugly, thick, hateful criminal misfit of them all!

Nick Griffin Now Supports Watmough, Whittle and Sheppard
16.07.2008 14:09
http://leejohnbarnes.blogspot.com/2008/07/shepherd-trial-illegal-and-unlawful.html
In this surprising piece of Aryan unity, Lee Barnes claims that former BNP organiser Simon Sheppard’s conviction is “unlawful” and that both Sheppard and Whittle “should not have been found guilty”.
It's great news for anti-fascists fighting the BNP that Nick Griffin wants to make amends with the paedos of the BPP. It could just be that the BNP relies heavily on Redwatch to bring about acts of violence upon anyone who threatens Cyclops's leadership, but I think there's more at stake than this: -
Thanks to Gri££in's swindling of the BNP finances, which have bled the pot dry, the money Gri££in has stolen going into his Welshpool farmhouse and his Croatian retirement cottage, Gri££in needs to tap other sources of income.
By building bridges through Lee Barnes with the nonces of the BPP, Nick can generate a new and healthy source of income to help the BNP fight by-elections: - Taking over the BPP's Kiddy Fiddling Video Ring. Perhaps (Plague Of Faceparty) Mark Collett will take over the reigns, as he is afterall the BNP's "multimedia expert", lol
Well done Legal Beagle, and your puppeteer Nick Griffin for making peace with Watmough, and ensuring that the BNP is tarred with the same paedo brush.
THANKS, NASTY NICK!!!
Charlotte Pink Potatoes

Why is it neo-nazis cannot say the word "racist", preffing to say "racialist"?
Is it they are ashamed at admitting they are indeed racist.
At least John Tyndall (Rot In Hell), founder of the BNP, when confronted by the press, asking about the BNPs policies said "yes, we are 100% racist".
No beating about the bush there, compared to BPP paedo ring troll Watmough.

Sheppard's Edited His Own Wikipedia Entries (what a clown!)
17.07.2008 05:22
He has been editing his own Wikipedia page, using the acronym "ReturnToChristendom", which is actually a bannable offense on Wikipedia, but he was hoping nobody would notice.
If you look on the contributions to wikipedia by Sheppard, you will see they are all about race, and include articles on the "British National Party", "Simone Clarke", David Duke, an article called "Negro", several articles on the DNA of british Jewish people, and another racial fundementalist article entitled "The Race Of Jesus".
Another article is entitled "Master Race", which Sheppard obviously thinks he is a member of.
Regarding the editing Sheppard has done to his own Wikipedia page, he has watered down accusations over Heretical Press showing anti-senetic cartoons.
The Wikipedia article said (about Simon Sheppard): -
"His website expresses hatred of Jews and women, with black people and others as its secondary targets. One section contains photographs of Jews in Nazi [[extermination camps]], with mocking captions"
Sheppard has totally deleted this, and has also doctored a Redwatch article, as well as adding links to both Redwatch and Heretical Press to Wikipedia, hoping to get new recruits to the British far right, in particular the BPP and the BNP.
He was obviously worried that judges and juries might seek enlightenment from Wikipedia, so he has decided to, since March (when he first became a Wikipedia user), edit out all controversy over his own far right websites, as well as adding his own pseudo-scientific theories about DNA and racial inheritance throughout Wikipedia.
To this neo-Nazi, Wikipedia is a playground of hate, and nobody has noticed what Simon Sheppard has been getting up to on Wikipedia. He has edited pages referring to himself at least four times following, and yet, alarm bells haven't sounded in the mods heads, which is extremely worrying.
Like all Holocaust deniers, Sheppard thinks he's clever, when in-fact he's simply a racist layman who likes to twist and revise history to support his peculiar, disturbing views.
Check the user contributions of ReturnToChristendom (Simon Sheppard trolling wikipedia) by checking out the following link: -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/ReturntoChristendom
Wikipedia is supposed to be unbiased, and editing your own page is strictly prohibited. I hope the Wiki authorities will wake up to Sheppard's behaviour, can reverse all of his edits, and ban him from accessing Wikipedia.
It's a bit of an irony whenever Sheppard uses a pseudonym like "Return To Christendom" when he worships stupid non-existant Norse gods like Odin, folks.
