Neo-Nazi podcasters sent to prison on terror charges for targeting Prince Harry and his young son – ABC News – UK

A neo-Nazi podcaster who called for the deaths of Prince Harry and his young son received a prison sentence Thursday along with his co-host Thursday. The sentencing judge in London called the duo “dedicated and unapologetic white supremacists” who encouraged terrorism.

Christopher Gibbons and Tyrone Patten-Walsh espoused racist, antisemitic, Islamophobic, homophobic and misogynistic views and encouraged listeners of their “Lone Wolf Radio” podcast to commit violent acts against ethnic minorities, authorities said.

Using aliases on their show, the pair said “the white race was likely to be ‘genocided’ unless steps were taken to fight back.” They approved of a day when so-called race traitors would be hanged, particularly those in interracial relationships. Prince Harry’s wife, Meghan, is biracial.

On one episode, Gibbons said the Duke of Sussex should be “prosecuted and judicially killed for treason” and called Harry’s son, Archie, who is now 4, a “creature” that “should be put down.”

Gibbons, 40, was sentenced to eight years in prison, the Metropolitan Police said. Patten-Walsh, 34, was given a 7-year term. Both will be on the equivalent of probation for three years after their release.

“Why don’t we outlaw war,  just as we have long since outlawed cannibalism?  How infinitely more horrible it is than cannibalism, which so shocks our sensibilities.”

LA Region’s COVID Cases Are Up As New Variant Sweeps The US | LAist

A small orange and white box sticks out of a white U.S. Postal Service envelope with blue writing. The small box is a texting kit printed with the words "iHealth" and "COVID-19."

The California company iHealth is one of 12 U.S. manufacturers getting an investment from the federal government to provide free tests by mail to people ahead of the winter COVID season.

Why it matters: Orange County pediatrician Eric Ball, who has seen an uptick in COVID-19 patients at his practice, worries that the return to school and daycare will see more children infected in the coming weeks.

“We really have no medications to treat COVID for children, so we do worry a little bit more when kids get COVID, especially kids who have not been vaccinated, because some of them do get quite ill,” Ball said.
