(CNN) White supremacist Christopher Cantwell has been arrested and charged with sending an extortionate and threatening interstate message, according to the FBI office in Boston. The rallies turned violent and a white supremacist murdered a woman and injured many other people by driving his car into them. According to the indictment filed Wednesday, Cantwell is accused of threatening someone via the Telegram messaging app last June. Since Charlottesville, many neo-Nazi and white supremacist chatrooms and online forums have been shut down and many have flocked to the Telegram app, which offers more encryption and security. Cantwell has denied the claims and he recently quoted Hitler's "Mein Kampf" in a court filing in that case.
