Federal authorities have arrested crying Nazi Christopher Cantwell for a violent and vulgar threat he allegedly made last year in an apparent attempt to extort information about a rival neo-Nazi, new court documents reveal.

According to a federal indictment unsealed on Thursday first noticed by Seamus Hughes, an extremism researcher at George Washington University Cantwell is accused of sending a threatening message to an unidentified man over the messaging app Telegram on June 16, 2019.

So if you dont want me to come and f*ck your wife in front of your kids, then you should make yourself scarce, Cantwell allegedly wrote in the message. Give me Vic, its your only out.

The message, the indictment alleges, was an attempt to extort personal identifying information about a man known by the on-line pseudonym VM.

Vic and VM both likely refer to the pseudonymous podcast host Vic Mackey, a vile and yet-to-be-identified neo-Nazi with whom Cantwell has had a long-running feud.

Its unclear how the man Cantwell allegedly threatened might know Vic Mackeys real identity.
