US Edition5 Accused of Supporting Antifa Plead Guilty to Terrorism-Related Offense After Texas Shooting
Nine members of a North Texas Antifa Cell face terrorism and attempted murder charges for a July 4 attack on an ICE detention center, FBI said the group sought to overthrow the government.
- A grand jury indicted six individuals, including Nathan Baumann, Joy Gibson, and John Thomas, for providing material support related to the July 4 attack at Prairieland Detention Center, with arraignment scheduled for Dec. 3.
- Authorities say the North Texas Antifa Cell acted with anti‑ICE, anti‑law‑enforcement, and anti‑government motives, with flyers calling to `fight ICE terror with class war, free all political prisoners`,
- Wearing tactical gear, alleged attackers shot fireworks, fired at an Alvarado police officer, and vandalized the detention center before leader Benjamin Song fled, prompting a week-long FBI Dallas manhunt.
- Several defendants are scheduled to plead guilty this week, and if convicted, Song, Arnold, Evetts, Morris, and Rueda face 10 years to life, prosecutors say.
- Acting U.S. Attorney Nancy Larson said the indictment is the first of its kind nationally, following President Donald Trump's designation of Antifa as a `domestic terrorist organization` and FBI Dallas's statement that charges `underscore the seriousness of the crimes committed` in an FBI-led, multi-agency investigation.
