A federal judge will allow accused kidnapper and pedophile Nathan Larson to defend himself against charges he kidnapped a 12-year-old girl from Fresno because he intended to sexually assault her.
In a hearing Friday, United States District Judge Jennifer L. Thurston granted Nathan Larsons request to serve as his own defense attorney.
The 41-year-old Larson, an admitted pedophile, is charged with several felonies that could put him in prison for life, if he is found guilty.
The judge also allowed Larson of Virginia to designate defense attorney Peter Jones as his standby counsel.

Nathan Larson (politician)
Nathan Daniel Larson (born September 19, 1980) is an American white supremacist. He has advocated for curtailing women's rights and decriminalizing child sexual abuse and incest. A self-described "quasi-neoreactionary libertarian", Larson was expelled from the Libertarian Party of Virginia in 2017.
Larson served 14 months in prison for the felony of threatening the president of the United States in 2008. In 2020, Larson was arrested at Denver International Airport for allegedly kidnapping a 12-year-old girl. During a search of his home, detectives found evidence suggesting that he operated a website encouraging pedophilia and child rape.
