(COLORADO SPRINGS) — A man who was found in possession of Nazi and white supremacist materials has been sentenced to 27 months in prison for stockpiling weapons, according to the Department of Justice (DOJ).

42-year-old Chad Edward Keith maintained properties in both Colorado Springs and Cotopaxi and was arrested in May 2023 after an undercover FBI informant documented Keith’s criminal activities for a year. He was arrested on federal weapons charges for allegedly stockpiling assault weapons and ammunition at his two properties, despite having been convicted of a felony in 2003.

According to court documents, Keith had 11 firearms, including rifles and a shotgun, stored at both his Colorado Springs and Cotopaxi residences. During the execution of search warrants related to this case, federal agents also observed various paraphernalia and propaganda related to white supremacy and Nazism, according to the DOJ.

Inside Keith’s Colorado Springs home, agents found a flyer with pictures of various Congressmen and Senators with images of the Star of David on their foreheads. The placement of the Stars of David was suggestive of firearms bullseye targets, the DOJ said.

Keith pleaded guilty to being a prohibited person in possession of weapons in October of 2023. His sentencing hearing was held on Jan. 30, 2024, during which he was sentenced to 27 months in prison followed by 36 months of supervised release. Keith was also ordered to forfeit all 11 firearms and corresponding ammunition.

“Coloradans can rest easier knowing that a dangerous person is behind bars,” said United States Attorney Cole Finegan. “Together with our law enforcement partners, we remain committed to making sure that violent felons are prohibited from possessing weapons.”
