Charges Mount Against Palouse Racist

A Whitman County man arrested on federal gun charges last month had several guns and a large collection of ammunition when investigators searched his properties, a new indictment alleges. Jeremiah Daniel “J.D.” Hop, 29, faces two counts of felon in possession of a firearm and a forfeiture charge that demands he give up four rifles, a 12-gauge shotgun, and more than 150 rounds of shotgun shells and other ammunition. A grand jury indicted him on the new charges this week in U.S. District Court. Hop was convicted in California of third-degree rape of a child in 2005, a felony that prohibits him from possessing firearms or ammunition/ Meghann Cuniff , Sirens & Gavels. More here .

DFO: Hop bragged online about being involved in the racist picketing of Coeur d’Alene taco stands. When you read the allegations against him re: firearm and ammo possesion and consider that he’s a convicted sex offender, you have some idea of what the owners of those taco stands were facing.
