US army veteran wore wire for FBI to expose KKK members

Joseph Moore helped foil at least two murder plots, according to court records, in nearly 10 years working undercover

In nearly 10 years working undercover very recently for the FBI inside Florida's Ku Klux Klan, Joseph Moore helped foil at least two murder plots, according to court records from a criminal trial for two of the klansmen.

He lived a secret double life. At times the US army veteran donned a white robe and hood as a hit man for the Ku Klux Klan in north Florida. He attended clandestine meetings and participated in cross burnings. He even helped plan the murder of a Black man.
