The ABT enforces its rules and promotes discipline among its members, prospects and associates through murder, attempted murder, conspiracy to murder, assault, robbery and threats against those who violate the rules or pose a threat to the enterprise. Members, and oftentimes associates, are required to follow the orders of higher-ranking members, often referred to as “direct orders.”

The indictment alleges that a member of the Aryan Brotherhood, David Clyde Mitchamore Jr., aka “Super Dave,” and his girlfriend, Christie Rochelle Brown, were murdered by Charles Cameron Frazier, aka “Mojo,” and Brent Nicholas Stalsby, aka “Twist,” because Mitchamore failed to repay an outstanding debt he allegedly owed to Carl Richard Carver, an alleged general in the Aryan Brotherhood.

The indictment alleges that after Mitchamore was killed, Frazier and Stalsby murdered Brown because they did not want to leave any witnesses to Mitchamore’s killing. The bodies of Mitchamore and Brown were discovered in Nacogdoches County on August 10, 2007.

Carver, Frazier and Brent Stalsby appeared on Monday before U.S. Magistrate Judge Keith Giblin. Wood, Flanagan and Terry Stalsby will make their initial appearances on Tuesday before Judge Giblin. The punishment range for these offenses includes life in prison or the death penalty.

The case is being prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Texas – Lufkin Office and the Criminal Division’s Gang Unit, in full cooperation with the Nacogdoches County District Attorney’s Office.
