US The Imperial Wizard of the KKK was just found dead near Missouri river bank

A Ku Klux Klan leader missing since Wednesday was found dead by a river near his home in Missouri on Saturday morning.

Frank Ancona called himself the imperial wizard of the Traditionalist American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, and went missing Wednesday. Sheriff of Washington County, MO, Zach Jacobsen, says the department learned from Ancona’s son’s Facebook post of the disappearance, which was deemed suspicious. Jacobsen confirmed that a body found earlier today by a family fishing by Big River was that of the missing Ancona.

Jacobsen said they received the report of the body while following other leads into the death, according to the Daily Journal. “We processed the scene and the body was transported by the Washington County Coroner’s office for an autopsy to determine a cause of death,” he said. “The body was positively identified as Frank Ancona and his family was notified.”

All of Anconas’s firearms were missing from his home  —  his wife Malissa said he had taken all of them with him, but his family in the house next door claimed Ancona would never have done such a thing.

Police said one gun, the one Ancona usually carries around with him, was turned over to them by his wife.

Ancona has been trying to make over his KKK faction to gain wider acceptance, even prior to the latest “Alt-Right” euphemism.

“I believe in racial separation but it doesn’t have to be violent,” he told CNN in 2014.

“People in the Klan are professional people, business people, working types. We are a legitimate organization.”

Ancona and his Traditionalist Knight have been decried by rival faction, the Loyal White Knights located nearby.

Robert Jones, Loyal White Knights Imperial Klaliff, told the New Lenox Patch “This guy’s group, the Traditionalist American Knights, ain’t even been around three years…Frank Ancona is also Jewish and his wife is Jewish and he’s being exposed all through the Klan world as a fake and he ain’t even white and you can actually look his family tree up which we’ve got his family tree which we can give y’all too and you can post it,” Jones claimed.
