Brandon Clint Russell, the leader of a neo-Nazi group, had nothing to say before a judge handed down the maximum 20-year sentence for his role in a white supremacist plot to destroy Maryland's power grid.

Baltimore District Court Judge James K. Bredar also ordered lifetime supervision for Russell once he is released.

Bredar called the Florida man "the brains" behind the chilling plan to destroy five Baltimore Gas and Electric (BGE) substations in and around Baltimore and create a political revolution.

Pfft, he’s a white supremacist, they’d never hurt him during arrest.
