5

FROM FOX NEWS: Nine members of an Antifa group were indicted Friday and seven more were charged in the attempted murder of a Texas police officer during a July attack on an immigration detention center, the Justice Department said.

Charged in the 12-count incident were suspected North Texas Antifa cell members Cameron Arnold, Zachary Evetts, Benjamin Song, Savanna Batten, Bradford Morris, Maricela Rueda, Elizabeth Soto, Ines Soto and Daniel Rolando Sanchez-Estrada. They were charged with multiple offenses for their alleged roles related to the July 4 attack at the Prairieland Detention Center in Alvarado, Texas.

In addition, Nathan Baumann, Joy Gibson, Susan Kent, Rebecca Morgan, Lynette Sharp and John Thomas are charged with one count of providing material support to terrorists.

A 16th defendant, Seth Sikes, was charged in late October with one count of providing material support to terrorists.

“This is the first indictment in the country against a group of violent Antifa cell members,” said acting U.S. Attorney Nancy Larson.

The nine indicted suspects are charged with rioting with the intent to commit an act of violence; providing material support to terrorists; conspiracy to use and carry an explosive; using and carrying an explosive; attempted murder of officers; discharging a gun during and in relation to and in furtherance of a crime of violence; corruptly concealing a document or record; and conspiracy to conceal documents.

FBI Director Kash Patel told Fox exclusively, “Anyone who targets law enforcement or uses violence to advance an anarchist agenda will face the full weight of the federal government.

“These are domestic terrorists, and under President Trump’s leadership, we’re finding them and bringing them to justice.”
