Justin Ladd
[From article]
A 35-year-old North Andover man who is covered in “white power” tattoos will serve four to five years in prison for beating, berating and sexually abusing his stepdaughters, which prosecutors said was a racially motivated crime.
Justin Ladd pleaded guilty yesterday to 32 counts of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, indecent assault and battery, open and gross lewdness, and assaulting a person because of that person’s race.

Ladd adorned the girl’s home with swastikas and ordered them to give him a “Nazi salute” prosecutors said.
“Ladd repeatedly abused his two stepdaughters, whose father is Dominican, by telling them if they ‘aren’t white, they aren’t right,’ ordering them to dance like monkeys, throwing them against the wall, hitting them with a hammer, belt or piece of wood, twisted their tongues with pliers, exposing his genitals to the girls, and threatening to have the Hell’s Angels rape and kill them if they told anyone,” prosecutors said in a statement.
The girls’ mother Anne Ladd, 32, pleaded guilty to two counts of reckless endangerment of a child and two counts of permitting bodily injury to a child. She was sentenced to five years’ probation, and will only be allowed supervised visits with her children in that time.
The girls, now 15 and 17, were abused from 2008 to 2012, prosecutors said.
