The ex-politician and child porn advocate died in custody, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office. Fresno County Sheriff's Office/Fresno County Sheriff's Office Jurgen Soekhoe, assistant chief deputy of the U.S. Marshal Eastern District of California, said Larson had been transported out of state before his death. According to the Fresno County Sheriff's Office, Larson traveled to the girl's home and convinced her to sneak out of her house and then went to Fresno Airport. Larson made the child wear a long hair wig to alter her appearance and also told her to "act as though she was disabled and unable to speak" to avoid having conversations with anyone while they made their way to the airport. Police later discovered that the flight had a layover in Denver, Colorado, where officers located Larson at the airport and managed to rescue the girl. In Denver, Larson was charged with a misdemeanor charge of harboring a minor, but also faced felony charges in Fresno County for kidnapping, child abduction, soliciting child pornography from a minor, and meeting a child for the intention of sex. Larson previously ran three times for public office in Virginia with promises to legalize child pornography, abolish the Child Protective Services department, and discourage women to go to college, according to the Fauquier Times . He lost each attempt to represent Virginians. In a 2018 political manifesto, Larson identified himself as a white supremacist and called Adolf Hitler a "white supremacist hero." His manifesto also stated it was not fair that "incels," also known as involuntary celibates, be "forced to pay taxes for schools, welfare and other support for other men's children." On now-defunct websites "suiped" and "incelocalypse" Larson endorsed the rape and sexual abuse of children. At the time, George W. Bush was the outgoing president and Barack Obama was the incoming occupant of the White House. Update 10/18/22, 2:09 a.m. ET: This article was updated with comment from Jurgen Soekhoe.
