Paul James Kryscuk, a former porn actor who used the alias "Deacon" while active in the neo-Nazi group BSN from 2017 through 2020, pleaded guilty to conspiracy to damage an energy facility on Feb. 10, with the possibility of receiving a reduction from a 15-year prison sentence in exchange for "substantial assistance" in the government's prosecution in the case.
