White nationalists sued a man with Lake Stevens ties. They can't find him. [View all]

Five people tied to a white nationalist group sued a Washington man last year who allegedly infiltrated the organization and released confidential information.

Since then, efforts to serve him with the federal lawsuit have been unsuccessful, including at a Tacoma address listed among his last-known locations, court records show.

The lawsuit was filed in July 2023 by five members or affiliates of Patriot Front in U.S. District Court in Seattle. Patriot Front is described by the Anti-Defamation League as a Texas-based white supremacist group whose goal is to form a new state advocating namely for white men. The Southern Poverty Law Center calls Patriot Front a hate group and said it splintered from another white supremacist organization following the deadly 2017 rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.

The suit alleges David Capito II, who purportedly has changed his name, joined Patriot Front in July 2021 using a fake identity and under false pretenses. Capito took pictures of group members’ license plates and other personal information, recorded members with hidden microphones and cameras and exploited the group’s private chats and video links from its website, the suit said.
