About this episode

The episode discusses the case of a young neo-Nazi convicted of plotting a mass gun attack and the implications of online radicalization among youth.

Nineteen-year-old neo-Nazi Alfie Coleman, from Essex, was convicted for plotting a mass gun attack, following an MI5 undercover sting. Coleman, a former supermarket worker, was found guilty of preparing terrorist acts after creating a hate list and drafting a manifesto targeting a mosque and the lord mayor of London. He was caught red-handed after handing over £3,500 in a Morrisons car park to buy a pistol, magazines, and ammunition from undercover officers. Searches of his home revealed neo-Nazi flags, extremist books, and cash, along with devices loaded with bomb-making guides and emails to far-right groups. Colemans case highlights the growing concern of children getting involved in violent extremism online, with one in five counter-terror cases now involving children. He will be sentenced on July eighth. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
