| Black Man Pleads Guilty to Posing as Obama-Hating White Supremacist on Facebook An African-American man from Mississippi admits posing as a white supremacist to send a death threat across state lines by Facebook. The U.S. Attorney's Office says 20-year-old Dyron L. Hart of Poplarville pleaded guilty Wednesday in federal court to making a threat in November 2008. Hart admitted creating a name and using a white supremacists' photo to pose as a white man who planned to kill blacks because Barack Obama had been elected president. He originally was charged with threatening three black students at Nicholls State -- where he had attended one semester -- but pleaded guilty Wednesday to one count. He sent the threats from a computer in Poplarville. The maximum sentence is five years in prison and a $250,000 fine; sentencing is Nov. 18. |
