Tribune News Service

Two teens have been sentenced to prison in the United Kingdom for neo-Nazi terrorist social media posts, including one that threatened to assassinate Prince Harry and deemed him a “race traitor” for marrying Duchess Meghan, who is biracial.
Michal Szewczuk, 19, and Oskar Dunn-Koczorowski, 18, appeared in court remotely from prison Tuesday.
Szewczuk pleaded guilty to two counts of encouraging terrorism and five counts of possessing terrorist material that was found in his dorm at Portsmouth University, the BBC reported.
The material, discovered during his arrest, included instructions on how to make a bomb and a manual on “white resistance.”
One image he posted showed Prince Harry with a gun held to his head and a swastika, captioned with the phrase “See ya later race traitor”.

Szewczuk also ran a blog that was deemed “extremely violent and aggressively misogynistic”.
He was sentenced to four years and three months in prison, The Guardian reported.
During the court hearing, Dunn-Koczorowski’s lawyer, David Kitson, said his client’s mindset had not changed and he had a “lack of remorse” for his views and a “deeply entrenched ideology,” according to news reports.
Dunn-Koczorowski was sentenced on two counts of encouraging terrorism, which included an online post sympathetic toward Anders Breivik, the man who killed at least 77 people in Oslo, Norway.

Both men were involved in the Sonnenkrieg Division, a British Neo-Nazi group of which Dunn-Koczorwoski was one of the leaders, according to the BBC.
“The posts I have seen and read are abhorrent as well as criminal by reason of their clear intention to encourage terrorist acts,” said Judge Rebecca Poulet upon sentencing the two.
The men met on Gab, a social media platform that is known for its far-right user base, though they had never met in-person.
