(AP) &#8211; A white supremacist who unsuccessfully tried to take over the small North Dakota town of Leith says he wants to leave the state if he&#8217;s released from jail and &#8220;retire from white nationalism.&#8221;<br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sixty-two-year-old Craig Cobb has been jailed since mid-November, when he was arrested for terrorizing residents of Leith during an armed patrol. He&#8217;s awaiting an April 29 sentencing, and hoping a judge will spare him more jail time by accepting a plea deal that calls for four years of probation.<br \/>\n\u00a0Cobb says if he gets out of jail he&#8217;ll petition another state to accept him, which would be a requirement of his probation. He didn&#8217;t say which state.<br \/>\n\u00a0Cobb says he feels he&#8217;s done his part to promote white nationalism and is tired of the spotlight.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>White supremacist Craig Cobb is friends with a man jailed in the killing of three people at a Jewish community center and Jewish retirement complex near Kansas City on Sunday.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Cobb says he last spoke with Frazier Glenn Cross on Thursday and that Cross gave no indication that he might be planning an attack.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Cobb says the allegations against Cross have nothing to do with him and so he isn&#8217;t commenting.
