Springfield, Ohio, sues neo-Nazi group for relentless ‘campaign of hate and harassment’ over Haitian migrants ‘The Blood Tribe also identified Springfield residents who supported the Haitian community and set out to terrorize and intimidate them,’ the complaint states.
Claiming the new Haitian community threatened “the good White residents” of Springfield, Blood Trump members descended on the city in August during Springfield’s annual Jazz & Blues festival, marching downtown while displaying guns and waving swastika flags.
The Ohio city that became a flashpoint of the immigration debate during the 2024 presidential election after Donald Trump amplified false rumors of Haitian immigrants “eating the pets” is suing a neo-Nazi group for unleashing a “campaign of hate and harassment” against residents who defended the city’s migrant population.
According to the complaint, “the Blood Tribe made good on those threats,” noting that the city and its residents received at least 33 bomb threats in subsequent weeks, the vast majority of which included complaints about the Haitian community.
“The Blood Tribe also identified Springfield residents who supported the Haitian community and set out to terrorize and intimidate them,” the complaint states.
