On the subject of Crawford's :-) : April 5, 2001, South Carolina. Jimmy Kris Crawford receives a 37 month prison sentence for his role in burning crosses that belonged to a predominantly black church. Crawford had encouraged two teenagers to burn two of the church's crosses as part of a Ku Klux Klan initiation ceremony. According to the sentencing judge, Crawford had also told one of the teenagers to throw a firebomb into another predominantly black church, but it failed to ignite (had the church burned, said the judge, an additional twenty years would have been added to his sentence). Crawford had been attempting to form a Klan group called the South Carolina Ghost Riders. The teenagers had earlier pleaded guilty to charges stemming from the incident. adl.org
