Sacramento County officials ID man as white supremacist, seize gun

KCRA

Sacramento County sheriff’s deputies have seized a gun and other items from an Orangevale man, saying he is a white supremacist who is a danger to others, officials said Tuesday.

Andrew Richard Casarez, 27, had his 9 mm pistol taken away from him July 15 after an anonymous group outed him as a white supremacist, the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office said. 

The sheriff’s office said they seized the gun because of the likelihood that Casarez could become “a ‘lone wolf’ attacker to prove his status to the cause.'” A gun restraining order against Casarez was filed July 13.

Casarez is known as the leader of the online group “Bowl Patrol,” named after domestic terrorist Dylann Roof, who donned a bowl cut haircut when he killed nine people at a church prayer meeting in Charleston, South Carolina, in 2015. The sheriff’s office described the online group as one “that endorses violence against minorities.”

The sheriff’s office said detectives found open source images online that Casarez posted, displaying “ideals for violence against minorities and called for murder and rape of law enforcement and people of Jewish Descent.”

Court documents obtained by KCRA 3 show the sheriff’s office began investigating in October 2019 for hate speech on social media and the dark web when they discovered posts by Casarez — using “Vic Mackey” as a moniker — praising Roof’s mass shooting.

Casarez also posted comments detectives found that stated he “reloads his own ammunition and was attempting to obtain an ‘80% AR,’ referring to an 80 percent-built AR-15, which would be unregistered and illegal in the state of California.”

The sheriff’s office said detectives identified Casarez as his online alias after an online group publicly broadcast his identity July 7. Detectives then served a search warrant July 15. Along with his pistol, they seized a gun case with two empty magazines, a black T-shirt with a skull and crossbones that had a bowl cut hairpiece and a pair of gray Levi Strauss pants.

Casarez’s gun violence restraining order expires Friday, but a hearing will take place this week to determine if it should be extended, the sheriff’s office said.

Detectives also investigated Casarez in December 2019 for graffiti that may have been motivated by racial hate, the sheriff’s office said.

    1. I’m sure they want us hung , Henry.
      Feelings are mutual , although if higher ground morally is a prerequisite
      We’ve got that in spades

      Their labels really have no significance with me , but they can all rot in hell just the same

      I’m not sure if you hear this much
      But I really appreciate what you do
      And try to bring attention to FTTWR
      As much as possible

  1. Yup, I say total BS… So, next will be someone who makes an Anti-semantic comment or possesses literature even questioning their precious Holocaust… and then what? Same treatment….

    or is this another BS Media Stunt to try to rile the Dumb dumbs to come join in the BLM BS? They need this 2 sided fight real bad….

    Well, I expect anything

    fk um all… we stand and fall where we do I guess…

  2. The “bowl cut hairpiece”, the t-shirt with skull and crossbones and the grey Levi Strauss pants really give one a moment to pause and reflect on our own inventories. These are the things that can make or break you.
    Everybody’s got guns, but “bowl cut hairpieces” ought to scare a sense of dread into the hearts and minds of true Social Justice Warriors.
    Check his ethnicity. Casarez doesn’t sound “white” to me, more mexi-brown if anything.
    An anonymous tipster could easily be an investigator looking for brownie points, settling a personal battle or any number of unlawful acts merely by trampling the Bill of Rights and dealing with the rule of law later.
    Appears to be business as usual.
