Perhaps one of the most complete profiles of Minuteman Child Killer Shawna Forde is found in this story by Rick Anderson of the Seattle Weekly. Like myself, Rick doesn’t mince words when recounting the killer of Brisenia Flores past history. Lethally Blonde How a former teen prostitute and beautician from Everett became an influential anti-immigrant crusader—and alleged murderer. Long before she was accused of robbing and murdering a Mexican man and his 9-year-old daughter in the Arizona desert, exposing the modern American Minuteman movement to accusations of racial warfare; and long before she told her followers that, as a white woman, she saw brown-skinned immigrants as filthy, lowly lawbreakers, Shawna Forde was climbing into a car in Seattle to allegedly have MORE
On Friday, July 3rd, 2009, Jim Gilchrist took a break from slinging mud against his compatriots and along with staff and independent Minutemen and Friends of the Minuteman Project, Inc. attended the Murrieta-Temecula Republican Assembly Dinner meeting honoring Ex Border Patrol Agent and convicted felon Jose Compean. It is truly shameful, that in America today, liars and cowards, such as Ramos and Compean are, are hailed as heroes and Patriots. In the words of Jim Gilchrist, leader of the Minuteman Project and close associate of indicted Minuteman child killer Shawna Forde;
From William Gheen at Alipac: ALIPAC Issues Advisory on Glenn Spencer and American Patrol – July 2, 2009 We regret to inform everyone that the home offices of Glenn Spencer of American Patrol have been raided by a swat team with a search warrant due to his involvement with Shawna Forde. ALIPAC issued several national advisories about Shawna Forde earlier this year, when it became clear she was a risk to our movement, dishonest, and potentially violent. All known groups and leaders in the immigration enforcement movement heeded our advice earlier this year and did not post or distribute Shawna Forde’s bogus rape, assault story and photos, which were clearly an attempt to deflect suspicion away from herself and her MORE
Controversy over an Everett woman charged with two killings in Arizona now has the national leaders of anti-illegal immigration groups calling one another idiots. The sheriff’s department in Pima County, Ariz., has alleged Forde led the raid believing Flores was a drug trafficker, and she could net money to support her Minutemen American Defense group Even before the shootings Forde was a polarizing figure for people who endorse the idea that self-styled Minutemen engaged in surveillance and patrols are part of the solution to illegal immigration, human smuggling and drug trafficking along on the U.S.-Mexico border. Forde conducted border watches and patrols in Arizona, and was an ally of Jim Gilchrist, founder of the Orange County, Calif.-based Minutemen Project. An MORE
While I’ve been on sabbatical in the wilds of Wisconsin this week, the Everett Herald reveals that jailed Minuteman child killer Shawna Forde, had a “plan” or list of contacts to be notified should she disappear. Names on the list include Jim Gilchrist of the Minuteman Project and close supporter of Forde Jason Eugene “Gunny” Bush, one of the shooters and Forde’s director of operations Chuck Stonex, associate and confidant of Forde who is backpedaling and deep in denial trying to keep from being charged in the murders Gary Stevenson of Bandon, Ore, who was supposed to form a “coastal defense group” under Forde’s direction Jim Carter, of Tennessee, who claims to be a State Director of a Minuteman group MORE
In an article published yesterday in the Green Valley (Az) News, reporter Daniel Newhauser reveals additional evidence conclusively tying Border vigilante and child killer Shawna Forde with the other Minutemen Vigilantes who are still desperate to distance themselves from her. In and article titled Minutemen regroup after shootings, Daniel reveals…….
Jim Gilchrist, controversial founder of the Minutemen Project, and an ardent defender of Shawna Forde in the past, had this to say about her recent escapades.
Three people, including the leader of a border watch group and an officer within that group, were arrested in connection with a May 30 home invasion that left a father and his daughter dead and the mother wounded, authorities said. One of those arrested, Shawna Forde, is the leader of Minutemen American Defense, a group out of Washington state that conducts operations along the U.S.-Mexican border in Arizona. The group is not related to either the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps founded by Chris Simcox, or the Minuteman Project founded by Jim Gilchrist. Authorities also arrested Jason Eugene Bush, 34, who serves as operations director for the Washington group, and Albert Robert Gaxiola, 42, in connection with the shooting deaths of MORE
