Teen charged in murder plot against family and Trump
Nikita Casap, a 17-year-old resident of Wisconsin, has been charged with the murder of his parents. It appears he committed this act to prevent them from interfering with his plans. He aimed to assassinate Donald Trump and save the white race. The FBI reported the findings of the investigation.
Nikita Casap, a 17-year-old resident of Wisconsin, has been charged with the murder of his mother and stepfather, 35-year-old Tatiana and 51-year-old Donald. According to court documents, he allegedly did this to gain the financial resources and autonomy necessary for an attack on President Donald Trump and to overthrow the U.S. government, reports ABC News. Casap was arrested in March and charged with first-degree murder and concealing corpses.
Investigators discovered that Casap had ties to an extremist group that promotes neo-Nazi views. Materials related to this organisation were found on his phone, as reported by the portal.
The case involves the Order of Nine Angles, a group that the FBI has identified as seeking the destruction of civilisation. Casap reportedly received a message from an unidentified member of the group, claiming that targeting the president, and potentially the vice president as well, would undoubtedly plunge the country into chaos. Nikita was questioned about whether he was of legal age. Fearing that his phone might be seized if the plot came to light, the 17-year-old chose to take the most extreme step.
The FBI analysed documents allegedly written by Casap, calling for an attack on Trump and initiating a revolution to "save the white race". The 17-year-old reportedly possessed an image of Hitler, and after the potential assassination, planned to flee to Ukraine. He allegedly revealed his plans to kill his parents to one of his friends.
He was in touch with other parties about his plan to kill the President and overthrow the government of the Unites States. And he paid for, at least in part, a drone and explosives to be used as a weapon of mass destruction to commit an attack - cites ABC News from a Federal Bureau of Investigation statement.
Casap was in contact with others who were aware of his plans and assisted him in carrying them out. The 17-year-old remains in custody, and his next hearing is scheduled for 7th May at 18:00 GMT.
