Chapter 11:
Hiding Out A Murderer Of Alan Berg

Order member David Lane, with the FBI hot on his tail, contacted me in late January or early February 1985. He phoned and I met him at the same Benson motel I'd met Bob Mathews a few months earlier. When I arrived, he was standing in the middle of the motel parking lot, between parked vehicles.

The last person in the world I wanted to see at that time was an Order member, especially one involved with the Alan Berg murder. Lane was later convicted of that crime.

David greeted me with an embrace and a "hail victory", which I returned. He looked haggard and desperate and had a pleading look in his clear blue eyes, which had an effect on my good judgment. But, I said, "David, I just cannot do that. You know I'm legal and above-ground. I'm sorry, but I will not hide you out".

He quickly responded, "Well then, can you drive me to Idaho ?"

Thinking later about his quick response, I was convinced he had that alternate "request" planned, and was using the money given to me by The Order as subtle blackmail to obtain my help.

But I was moved by his pleading demeanor and I just couldn't muster the nerve to turn my back and walk away, so I said, "I can't drive you David, but I know somebody who might. Can you wait here for about an hour? I'll be back then, but I can't promise you he'll do it".

David replied, "Okay, I'll wait here". And, I drove away headed for Steve Miller's house 30 miles away.

Steve, Jack, and Doug were there when I arrived, and I asked Doug to step out into a field some 100 feet from the house for a private conversation. "Doug," I said, "You don't have to do what I'm suggesting. I'm not even sure I want you to, so there's no hard feelings if you don't. But, one of The Order members has contacted me and he wants somebody to drive him to Idaho.

Serious and with some excitement, Doug quickly answered, "Where's he at and how much time have I got?"

I said, "He's at a motel in Benson and waiting right now."

Doug said, "Give me five minutes to pack a few things, and I'll be ready," and he turned to head back to Steve's house.

I called after him, "Don't tell anybody where you're going, even your wife."

Doug nodded and walked rapidly into the house. Five minutes later he came out carrying a suitcase, and when he came over to me, I gave him $600 for trip expenses.

Doug followed me in the station wagon, and 30 minutes later we arrived at the motel and saw Lane standing as before.

We got out. I introduced them, and asked Lane if he needed any money. He said he didn't, so I waved farewell and drove away.

And so, thanks to Lane's subtle blackmail, I was even more deeply involved with The Order and had gotten Doug involved, as well. And, that still wasn't the end of it. They never got to Idaho. David phoned ahead and was told that things were too hot in Idaho, so Doug returned to North Carolina and was hiding Lane out in a mountain cabin just over the Virginia line from Western North Carolina. The cabin was owned by, a North Carolina activist, who later cooperated with federal officials, and who had met Doug at a previous rally.

Lane was arrested in early April as he was leaving a Winn Dixie supermarket in Winston-Salem, NC.
