The estranged father of bullied boy Keaton Jones, who's tearful video went viral earlier this week, has been revealed as having white supremacist links and is currently in jail for assault.
According to court documents obtained by TMZ, his father, Shawn White, was jailed in May 2015 for violating conditions of his parole in relation to a 2012 assault charge.
While it's understood Keaton does not have a relationship with his father, a series of photos shared by White on Facebook have caused further controversy for Jones and his family. Concerns have also been raised over the boy's mother and racist remarks made on her social media pages.

White shared images on the social media site displaying tattoos that say "Pure Breed" and "White Pride", as well as an image wearing a Nazi SS hooded sweatshirt.
He also has a "CWB" tattoo, understood to be an acronym for "Crazy White Boy" gang.
In another image, White poses with other males who are all performing the hand signal of the Aryan circle, a large white supremacist gang within the US prison system.
According to the court documents, it is understood White is set for release as early as next year.
The revelations have come just days after Jones mother was accused of racism after photos emerged on her with a Confederate flag.
Celebrities have shown their support for the young boy, who is set to attend several events with his new famous friends in the coming months.
