Robert Jay Mathews (January 16, 1953 – December 8, 1984) was the leader of The Order, an American white nationalist militant group.
Mathews burned to death during an intense gunfight with approximately seventy-five federal law enforcement agents who surrounded his house on Whidbey Island, near Freeland, Washington.
Mathews' life inspired the production of the 1988 theatrical film Betrayed and the 1999 television film Brotherhood of Murder.
