Woman Suspected in Several Ecoterror Cases ^ ap
excerpt
EUGENE, Ore. - A woman charged with damaging a transmission tower also is suspected in half a dozen other ecoterror crimes, including a firebombing at a Colorado ski resort, one of the costliest such crimes in the U.S.
Chelsea Gerlach was ordered held without bail after Assistant U.S. Attorney Kirk Engdahl made the allegations against her.
Federal public defender Craig Weinerman argued that the evidence against Gerlach was meager.
Gerlach, 28, was among six people arrested in five states last week on indictments alleging they set fires and damaged property between 1998 and 2001 in Oregon and Washington. The Earth Liberation Front and Animal Liberation Front took responsibility for most of the crimes.
Gerlach, of Portland, is charged with helping two others topple a Bonneville Power Administration high-tension line 25 miles east of Bend in 1999.
I believe the Nazi terrorist group The Order was located there as well.
Bin Laden's 'man in Sweden' nabbed in Prague (Sweden refused to arrest him, but dumbass travelled)
