LATEST AMERICAN FRONT LEADER ON THE WHITE POWER CHOPPING BLOCK: JOHN WYCZLINSKI

When the American Front in Florida was snatched up by the feds a few weeks ago, the affidavit made reference to a “John W.” That might be the Tampa, Florida American Front leader, who a few days ago joined his fellow AFholes in the hoosegow.

Officials have arrested a 13th person in the case against members of a white-supremacist group that allegedly plotted attacks in Melbourne and Orlando.

John Wyczlinski, 33, of Venice, was arrested last week on an Osceola County warrant. Arrest documents allege Wyczlinski is the leader of the Tampa region of the American Front group.

Twelve others connected to the group have been arrested in the past several weeks, at least six of whom live or have lived in Brevard County.

In a single affidavit filed for all the arrests, investigators allege the members were conducting weapons training for what they thought was an impending race war. They are accused of planning to shoot up a home and counter-protest a May 1 rally scheduled by a rival group.

Several of the others arrested have posted bond and been released from custody, including alleged leader Marcus Faella, 39.

Those accused in the case are:

Faella and his wife, Patricia Faella, 36, of rural St. Cloud
Verlin Lewis, 40, of Lynn Haven.
Mark McGowan, 29, and Jennifer McGowan, 25, of the Canaveral Groves area
Christopher Brooks, 27, of Palm Bay
Diane Stevens, 28, of Kissimmee.
Paul Jackson, 25, of Saint Cloud
Kent McLellan, 22, of Saint Cloud
Dustin Perry, 27, of Kissimmee
Richard Stockdale, 23, of Kissimmee
Dylan Rettenmaier, 25, of Palm Bay
