Members of the group “participated in their online child exploitation activities because they wanted to create an army of sadist followers.”

Federal prosecutors say four members of a neo-Nazi group ran a child exploitation ring that coerced minors into producing sadistic, abusive pornography.

Four men who an indictment claims espouse neo-Nazi beliefs have been charged with child exploitation in a case in which they coerced 16 children to create child pornography.

Four men face charges after investigators said they took part in an online neo-Nazi group that exploited children, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.
