An organization called the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) paid people who wanted to leave extremist groups such as the Ku Klux Klan to stay in them, according to newly filed court documents.

Two individuals informed the SPLC in 2010 that they feared for their safety from other Klan members and wanted to leave the white nationalist movement, after seeing media reports about the SPLC paying to help a person leave an extremist group.
