Three members of the Aryan Nations white supremacist group are scheduled to be arraigned on murder charges Wednesday after a dispute between members allegedly led to the beating death of one of them in a cornfield in Tennessee, the Associated Press reported

Corey Matthews, a father of two young girls, was targeted by other members of the Aryan Nations over a dispute, Franklin County Sheriff Tim Fuller has said, and Matthews “stepped outside of the bounds of their beliefs.” Police haven’t elaborated on what caused the dispute, nor have family members explained why they think he was trying to leave the group.
