Oklahoma police chief reportedly will resign over link to Neo-Nazi websites
‘It wasn’t me.’
That’s Texoma, Oklahoma Police Chief Bart Alsbrook’s story for why his name has been linked to websites that sell skinhead and white nationalist memorabilia.
And now he says he will resign over it.
According to a report from KXII Channel 12’s Rachel Knapp, Alsbrook is the registered owner of a website called ISD Records, which is pegged as the “Voice of Blood and Honor” and an “international coalition of racist skinhead gangs.”
The Southern Poverty Law Center released a hate map last week that identified the ISD records site and group as the only ‘hate’ group opearting out of Texoma.
Alsbrook is Texoma’s interim police chief. He has denied that the site belonged to him or that he had anything to do with it. The site was reportedly taken offline shortly after Knapp’s report.
Alsbrook said his identity was essentially stolen and the website link is because of skinheads he met at a heavy metal concert in the past who have an axe to grind. He told the Tulsa World newspaper:
Someone has been using my name for years on the Internet in regards to racist topics. It’s not me, rather someone who has hijacked my name due to my combativeness and rejection to white power skinheads who were always coming to the heavy metal shows, starting fights and messing up our scene.
