Missing KKK leader found
Frank Ancona, 51, who was an imperial wizard of the Traditionalist American Knights near St. Louis, was found with a gunshot wound to his head, the Daily Journal newspaper reported, citing the results of an autopsy performed Sunday.
His wife, Malissa Ancona, allegedly told investigators that she last saw him when he was called to make an out-of-state delivery for work on Wednesday.
Local authorities, however, found that Ancona hadn’t received such a call. His employer reported him missing when he didn’t show up for work on Friday, according to local outlet KMOV.
Ancona’s vehicle was found in Federal Forest Service Property on Thursday, according to local authorities. The discovery wasn’t reported as suspicious because a missing persons report had not been filed at the time, KMOV reported. Police searched the surrounding area the following day, but did not find anything substantial.
Ancona’s body was found along the riverbed by a family fishing along Big River near Belgrade on Saturday, the Washington County Sheriff’s Office said.
A later search of Ancona’s home in Leadwood uncovered a number of anomalies, according to The Daily Journal.
A safe was found in the missing KKK leader’s home pried open with its contents gone. Although the contents were missing, authorities do not believe it was a burglary. All of but one of Ancona’s firearms were missing. Malissa Ancona said her husband took them with him when he left on Wednesday, Dickey said.
Authorities also questioned Malissa about a Facebook post she wrote the day she says her husband left. The post announced she needed a roommate, and she reportedly told authorities she had written the post because her husband had told her he planned to file for divorce and that she’d need help covering rent.
