Followers of convicted child molester and sect leader Dwight “Malachi” York are bombarding officials at a federal maximum security lock-up with fake documents that seek to free him from a 135-year prison term.

The documents, some stamped by Athens-Clarke notaries, claim York has been falsely imprisoned since 2004 and should be released because he is an African diplomat, officials said.

United Nuwaubian Nation of Moors founder Malachi York alleges FBI agents threatened and coerced witnesses to testify against him and commit perjury.

The motion includes affidavits of several of York’s alleged victims in which the victims now say York never molested them, but they say they were threatened by FBI agents to make false statements.

Nuwaubian leader Dwight “Malachi” York continues to inspire followers in Athens and throughout the country, five years after a federal judge sentenced him to life in prison as a convicted child molester, tax evader and racketeer.

Although their leader is locked up thousands of miles away in Colorado, members of the United Nuwaubian Nation of Moors still gather in his name, and apparently just recently abandoned Athens for a meeting hall outside of Atlanta.

The government seized the building last year to help pay $566,000 in victim restitution that a federal judge ordered in 2004 as he sentenced York to 135 years in prison.

A woman belonging to a black supremacist sect has lost a bid to regain her job as a Clarke County sheriff’s deputy.

Dwight Malachi York was a false prophet, a psychotic thug, a con man extraordinaire and a sexual predator who headquartered his religious cult in rural Georgia, then used his position as a religious leader to deflect scrutiny from his criminal activities, a newly published book asserts.

A former Clarke County jailer will ask a jury to decide his claim that Sheriff Ira Edwards fired him because he is white, Christian and launched an investigation into a racist cult whose criminal leader met with the sheriff and donated money to his political campaign.

On Thursday, members of the religious group, the United Nuwaubian Nation of Moors held a demonstration at Macon City Hall. On their agenda, two issues: to protest their leader, Malachi York’s imprisonment, and the firing of four of their members from the Clark County Jail in Athens.

One of four Clarke County Sheriff’s Office jailers fired in November because their alleged black-supremacist activities undermined jail security will have to wait until later this summer to see if she can win back her job.

A Georgia civil rights activist is preparing a campaign to restore deputies to their posts at the Clarke County Jail, claiming they were fired because of their religious beliefs.

A deputy who had been fired because of ties to the Nuwaubian religious sect has been allowed to return to work after a personnel hearing officer overturned the sheriff’s decision to fire him.

The Clarke County sheriff must reinstate a deputy he fired last year for allegedly undermining jail security through his involvement in a black supremacist cult.

A former Clarke County deputy claimed a sloppy investigation gave officials an excuse to fire him and others affiliated with a black supremacist group on grounds they undermined jail security.

William York is one of four deputies who were fired in November after an internal sheriff’s investigation concluded they compromised security at the jail by recruiting prisoners into the United Nuwaubian Nation of Moors.
