WASHINGTON — A former Southern Poverty Law Center chief finance officer declined to face charges in person that she fraudulently funneled $1.2 million in donor money to white supremacist groups.
Heidi Beirich waived her right to appear at a virtual court arraignment in the Middle District of Alabama on 14 felony charges involving alleged wire fraud, bank fraud, and money laundering.
Instead, her defense team appeared for the Zoom arraignment and entered a not-guilty plea before US Magistrate Judge Kelly Pate on all counts.
Pate set a trial date of Oct. 5, which both prosecutors and Beirich’s defense attorneys indicated would likely be pushed back given the “voluminous” evidence to review in the case.
“Dr. Beirich is innocent, and this case is without merit,” one of her defense attorneys, Michael Proctor, previously said in a statement.
“We believe the charges against her and the SPLC are politically motivated, and Dr. Beirich has been targeted in this case because of the important work she has done to combat hate groups and extremists.”
Beirich is the only named defendant in the US government’s sweeping prosecution of a group billed as a defender of civil rights. Instead, prosecutors allege Beirich paid informants to keep hate groups afloat and even become lovers with a member of a white supremacist group SPLC was officially trying to take down.
SPLC itself has already pleaded not guilty to using $4.1 million in donor funds to bankroll informants in extremist groups.

***************************************
“Informants” = “operatives”
I can better understand why she had to pay her boyfriend so much, now.
Ummm. Bow-wow!
SPLC thugs make Jussie Smollett look like an honest man.
Ugly on the outside. Uglier on the inside.
But would laz?..... oh never mind.
“… charges in person that she fraudulently funneled $1.2 million in donor money to white supremacist groups”.
Meaning she stole from the SPLC and then gave the money to these white supremacy groups? Wish they’d name the groups. Did she do this when she was the Chief Finance officer of SPLC? Not clear?
Being a no-show means she’s on the run?

Maybe she was … busy… with her Nazi boyfriend
Probably wears one of those white sheets she paid for,
,,, by no means do I endorse white supremacy groups but the question arises - Why does this person get hit for $1,2m in activity and George Soros doesn’t... for multi millions?
Aren’t many nazi girls named Heidi?
