Witness says Kehoe wanted brother killed
The Associated Press
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — One of two men charged with murder in a plot to set up a whites-only nation asked that his little brother be killed, thinking the brother was blaming him for the killing of an Arkansas family, a witness testified Wednesday.
While in an Ohio jail, Chevie Kehoe tried to arrange a hit on his brother Cheyne, Mr. Kehoe's cellmate said. The little brother had implicated Chevie Kehoe in the 1996 killings, according to testimony.
Larry McPheron said that when he was transferred to another prison, Mr. Kehoe asked, “Could I arrange to have Cheyne taken care of?”
Chevie Kehoe, 26, of Colville, Wash., and Danny Lee, 26, of Yukon, Okla., are accused of murder, conspiracy and racketeering. Federal prosecutors say the two planned to set up the Aryan Peoples Republic in the Pacific Northwest.
On Feb. 15, 1997, the Kehoe brothers became notorious outlaws after a shootout with police near Wilmington, Ohio. The gunplay was caught on videotape and broadcast around the nation.
The brothers were indicted in Ohio and a nationwide manhunt began. Four months later, Cheyne Kehoe turned himself in and told police where to find his brother in Utah.
