An investigation continues into activities of a white separatist group,
including drugs and weapons

CORBETT -- Federal agents and Clackamas County sheriff's deputies arrested a
Corbett couple Thursday as part of an ongoing investigation into the
activities of a white separatist group.

Fritz A. Springmeier, 45, also known as Victor E. Schoff, and his wife,
Patricia Springmeier, 46, are accused of first-degree manufacture and
distribution of a controlled substance, and conspiracy to manufacture and
distribute controlled substances. They are being held in the Clackamas
County Jail.

Agents from the FBI and the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms
as well as sheriff's deputies searched the couple's home on Groce Road for
several hours Thursday, said Deputy Angela Blanchard, spokeswoman for the
Clackamas County Sheriff's Department.

Blanchard said police seized equipment used to grow marijuana, several
weapons and white separatist literature. The weapons were not "anything
illegal to have in your home," she said.

Fritz Springmeier was known for writing books and tracts on the beliefs of
the Christian Patriot Association, an ultra-right-wing group based in Boring.
"He does a lot of public speaking and proclaims himself to be a self-employed
author," Blanchard said.

Last month, police arrested three people in a Sandy-area home and seized
military-style weapons and 50 marijuana plants. Two of the people were
released, but a third suspect, Forrest E. Bateman Jr., 29, is being held at
the Justice Center Jail in Portland on outstanding warrants for previous
charges of assault and illegal possession of an AK-47 assault rifle.

In the Feb. 9 raid, agents also seized a small amount of ammonium nitrate and
fuel oil, and literature affiliated with the Army of God, a white supremacist
group connected to the 1997 bombings of an abortion clinic and a gay
nightclub in Atlanta.

Blanchard said Fritz Springmeier and Bateman met at a Christian Patriot
Association meeting several years ago.

"We think that part of their supplemental income came from selling
marijuana," she said. "We believe they were very close and worked
in concert together to operate a marijuana grown operation."

In November, federal agents arrested six members of the Christian Patriot
Association on accusations of operating a $186 million "warehouse bank"
scheme in Clackamas County that allowed 900 people across the nation to
hide their money from the Internal Revenue Service. The case has not yet
come to trial.
