Summary
Brandon Russell, leader of the neo-Nazi group Atomwaffen Division, was convicted of conspiring to attack Maryland’s power grid in a terrorist plot.
Prosecutors say Russell recruited Sara Beth Clendaniel to shoot at multiple Baltimore-area substations, aiming to cause mass blackouts and societal disruption.
Clendaniel, who took a plea deal, received 18 years in prison. Russell previously served five years for possessing explosives.
Officials estimate the planned attack would have caused $75 million in damages and widespread outages. He faces up to 20 years in federal prison.
I guess we know who is getting the next pardon.
Then he can go install a server in there. They can clean out the staff while he deals with the paperwork.
As a confirmed Nazi, he’ll be probably at the top of Trumps next pardon list. He needs hardworking, dedicated people like that in the field.
Project DOGE has already determined that jailing him is wasted money, and has given him a job helping shut down the department of education
Wait a second. The plea deal person got 18 years and the orchestrator is only facing a possible 20??
