Summary

Robert Rundo, founder of the neo-Nazi “Active Club” network, will be sentenced in US federal court after pleading guilty to conspiracy to riot at 2017 California rallies.

Rundo, who fled the US in 2018, expanded his network internationally while evading law enforcement, promoting militant extremism across North America, Europe, and beyond.

Prosecutors seek a two-year sentence, citing his global influence and attempts to avoid capture, while Rundo’s defense argues for time served due to harsh conditions in foreign detention.

Experts doubt imprisonment will deter Rundo’s extremist activities.
