NEW YORK, NEW YORK – APRIL 09: A gavel sits on the table as New York City Criminal Court Judge Paul McDonnell works remotely from his Brooklyn apartment due to the coronavirus outbreak on April 09, 2020 in New York City. Judge McDonnell, who usually presides over cases in a Manhattan court room, has had to alter his work routine by hearing cases remotely due to the virus outbreak. While Judge McDonnell still works a full day, he has seen a drop in criminal arrests as COVID-19 slows all New York activity. Across the country, the whole legal profession has been forced to find innovative ways to keep the justice system moving as safety concerns continue to prevent large gatherings.

A former contestant for the “Miss Hitler” beauty pageant and three others were sentenced to jail on June 9 for their involvement with the United Kingdom neo-Nazi terror organization National Action.

Contestant Alice Cutter, 23, was sentenced to three years in jail. Her ex-boyfriend Mark Jones, 25, received a 5 1/2-year jail sentence. Garry Jack, 25, was sentenced to 4 1/2 years and Connor Scothern will be jailed for 18 months.

According to the Jewish Chronicle, there is video footage of Cutter taking a picture with National Action members behind a sign reading, “Hitler was right,” and giving the Nazi salute. Messages unearthed during the trial revealed Cutter had joked about gassing synagogues and using a Jew’s head as a football.

Judge Paul Farrer said Jones was a key leader in National Action, as its regional organizer in London and was involved in the group’s physical training programs, according to the BBC. He also called himself “Grandaddy Terror.”

National Action was designated a terror organization in 2016 after the group celebrated a white supremacist murdering Labour Party Member of Parliament Jo Cox earlier in the year.
