A U.S. District Court Judge in Roanoke ruled Bill White is a threat to society and denied his request for bail.

It was the second legal setback of the day for the white supremacist and professed neo Nazi.

Earlier, a Federal Grand Jury in Chicago indicted White on one count of obstruction of justice.

The FBI accuses him of threatening a federal juror from a case in 2004.

White will be held in Roanoke City Jail until his transport to Chicago to stand trial.

No trial date has been set.

The judge said his decision came down to several blog postings White wrote in May.

White posted he felt the need to kill and had to stop himself from going on a “murder spree” several times.
