'Pedophile' White Supremacist Who Groomed 12-Year-Old California Girl Dies in Arizona Jail
Nathan Larson, an accused kidnapper and self-proclaimed pedophilia advocate, who was on trial for allegedly grooming a 12-year-old California girl, has died in the custody of an Arizona jail.
According to Sacramento Bee, Larson, also suspected of being a white supremacist, was arrested in 2020 after he persuaded a girl to run away from her home in Fresno, California. Authorities said he was allegedly trying to fly her to his home in Virginia and groom the girl.
Pedophile Nathan Larson's Cause of Death Not yet Revealed
The Associated Press reported that while his death was only reported on Monday, Nathan Larson died on September 18, with an order for the dismissal of his case filed on October 11.
The admitted pedophile was transferred from a federal facility in the Fresno area to a prison in Arizona. So far, the primary cause of death is still pending, with the medical examiner in Maricopa County, Arizona, investigating the case. The U.S. Attorney's Office did not give further details on why or how he died.
The 41-year-old previously appeared in court back in March and argued to be able to represent himself for his federal felony case. If he were still alive, he could have been facing a life sentence if convicted.
Court records showed that Larson planned to take the girl to his home in Virginia to sexually assault and impregnate her when she turned 13.
He was arrested in December 2020 at the Denver International Airport after he tried transporting the minor to Virginia.

Pedophile Nathan Larson Found California Girl Online
According to Sacramento Bee, Nathan Larson found the California girl he had been grooming through a rape/kidnap fetish website he operated from his Virginia home. Larson eventually convinced the girl to run away from her house.
Larson traveled to California to meet the girl after she snuck out of her home. He arranged for a ride-share company to take them to Fresno Yosemite International Airport before flying to Denver, where authorities arrested him.
The well-known pedophile allegedly made the California girl wear a long-haired wig to make her look older. He also had her pretend to be mute while traveling together, said Fresno County Sheriff Margaret Mims, who described Larson as a "white supremacist and a well-known advocate for pedophilia."
After his arrest in Denver, Larson was brought back to Fresno to face criminal charges, while the unnamed girl returned to her family.
Larson was accused of being a white supremacist after he was arrested for threatening to kill a president in 2008. Around this time, Barack Obama was the president-elect, and George Bush was outgoing.
Larson served 14 months of a 16-month sentence in federal prison for that crime. According to the Sacramento Bee, Larson was an accountant and even ran for congress before he was arrested. He also ran a disturbing website about rape and pedophilia.
Larson, a member of the Libertarian party, had a disturbing manifesto regarding pedophilia and incest. As a politician, he ran on a platform that included legalizing child pornography, incest, and polygamy. He also advocated "benevolent white supremacy" and named Adolf Hitler a "white supremacist hero."
He abused his ex-wife, a transgender man, believing that he would reform him to take the traditional role of a woman. He impregnated the transgender man, who committed suicide after the birth of their daughter.
During the custody hearing, a Colorado jury ruled Larson should not get custody of his daughter after he argued that he should have custody of his child because he plans to groom her and that he had the right to have sex with his daughter.
After losing custody, Larson still advocated for incest and pedophilia and was one of the loudest voices in the movement until his death. He believed that people had the right to groom and have sex with their own children while they were still minors, and wanted to change laws to legalize his beliefs.
