Members of the, an international neo-Nazi terrorist network, have been alleged to have been responsible for a number of murders, planned terrorist attacks, as well as other criminal actions.

This list contains some of those who have been criminally charged for activities done in connection with the Atomwaffen Division in the United States, including those who have been convicted.

In May 2017, on the night of Devon Arthurs' arrest, his third roommate, a 21-year-old, Brandon Russell was also arrested and questioned by local police and the FBI.

While it was determined that Russell was not involved in the homicides and was released, the deaths drew investigators' attention to a large Stash of explosives at the same location.

When the authorities searched Russell's garage, they found explosive precursors ammonium nitrate, nitromethane, homemade detonators and an explosive compound hexamethylene triperoxide diamine.

HMTD has been used to make improvised explosive devices by groups such as al-Qaeda, and ammonium nitrate and nitromethane were used by Timothy McVeigh, the perpetrator of the Oklahoma City bombing.

The authorities also found thorium and americium, two radioactive substances, in Russell's bedroom.

Russell, a former student of nuclear physics at the University of South Florida and a Florida Army National Guardsman, had a framed photograph of Timothy McVeigh in his bedroom.

The authorities also discovered guns, various Atomwaffen paraphernalia and neo-Nazi propaganda.

The FBI issued an arrest warrant for Russell on explosives charges and the FBI bulletin warned he might be planning a terrorist attack.

Russell was arrested again with another member in Monroe County.

The car they were driving contained assault rifles, body armor and more than 1000 rounds of ammunition which they had acquired after the shooting.

Russell claimed the explosives were used to power model rockets, but according to an FBI bomb technician the explosives were powerful enough to destroy an airliner.

The prosecutors alleged Russell "planned to use the explosives to harm civilians, nuclear facilities and synagogues."

In September 2017, Russell pleaded guilty to possessing an unregistered destructive device and illegally storing explosives in federal court; in January 2018, he was sentenced to five years in prison for those crimes.

He was released from prison August 23, 2021.

In February 2023 Russell and a Maryland woman were charged with allegedly conspiring to attack electric substations in the Baltimore area.

Russell and Sarah Clendaniel, have been arrested for planning to attack numerous Baltimore electrical substations, aiming to “completely destroy this whole city” in an apparently racially motivated attack.

In August 2017, during the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, Vasillios Pistolis, a corporal in the United States Marine Corps who was also a member of Atomwaffen Division, was recorded chanting "White Lives Matter" and "You Will Not Replace Us" with his fellow torch-bearing protestors on the first day of the rally.

On the second day of the rally, he assaulted Emily Gorcenski, a transgender woman, with a modified version of the Confederate flag that incorporated the neo-Nazi Black Sun symbol in its center, and he even bragged about the beating in private chats under the alias of "VasillistheGreek": "So to sum it up what I did Friday, dropped kicked that tranny that made video crying", "Today cracked 3 skulls open with virtually no damage to myself", and "I drop kicked Emily Gorcenski".

Pistolis was also part of a gang of neo-Nazis that assaulted an interracial couple at a restaurant in a suburb of Nashville, Tennessee.

Pistolis had promoted the Unite the Right rally on Twitter and posted an image of a car running over a left-winger with the caption "Good Night, Left Side".

He also mocked the death of Heather Heyer, calling her "a fat cunt who died of a heart attack. She wasn't even in the way of the car".

Although Pistolis denied that he participated in the rally or committed a violent act, he was later investigated by the United States Marine Corps and court-martialed, and in June 2018, he was imprisoned and reduced in rank for disobeying orders and making false statements.

He was officially separated from the United States Marine Corps in July 2018.

In November 2018, authorities in Washington arrested a 30-year-old man named Jeffrey Clark on weapons charges after the FBI received a tip from his family members that he and his brother Edward Clark, 23, might be planning a massacre.

It was revealed that the brothers were connected to the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting suspect, Robert Bowers.

In court, Federal prosecutors filings noted that the brothers may have known about the attack and that they openly admired McVeigh, Dylann Roof, Charlie Manson and Unabomber Ted Kaczynski and wanted to kill Jews and other minorities.

According to the family members the brothers wanted to hasten up the coming race war and revolution.

Online, Jeffrey Clark described Bowers as a "hero" and called the massacre a "dry run for things to come".

The authorities found guns, Atomwaffen propaganda, hollow-point bullets and ballistic vests and helmets in the apartment of the Clark brothers, and according to Propublica the brothers had communicated on the Atomwaffen chatroom for initiates and members.

Prosecutors urged the court to keep Clark in detention pending trial and take his threats seriously "in light of the defendant's access to weapons, possession of body armor, possession of high-capacity ammunition magazines, glorification of acts of violence, and proclamations that he was 'committed to the survival of the white race by any means necessary'".

Later, the authorities managed to track down the younger brother, who was discovered dead of a gunshot wound on Theodore Roosevelt Island.

Jeffrey Clark pleaded guilty to the gun charges and was sentenced to time served since his arrest by the FBI, followed by three years of supervised release.

20-year-old Benjamin Bogard was arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation in February 2019 after the FBI received a tip that Bogard might be planning a terrorist attack.

According to an agent, Bogard talked about wanting to go cross-country to find and kill minorities, Mexicans, and women, anyone who Bogard felt was "shit".

He said on one video, which he ended with a Nazi salute, "Pull out your shotgun, get to the side of the road, pump that shit open, point it at them, and pull the trigger."

On Twitter, he described himself as a "future mass shooter" and said that his favorite part of a gun is "the part that kills 30 babies per trigger pull."

Bogard embraced white supremacist beliefs and discussed obtaining a chemical substance to make a bomb.

Bogard had also searched online for targets to bomb and planned to attack the state capitol.
