CHARLOTTE, NC - A Gastonia man has been indicted in connection with an alleged conspiracy to kill members of the U.S. military.

Walter Eugene Litteral, 50, was indicted on Thursday for allegedly conspiring to violate federal firearms laws and related gun and drug charges, according to a statement from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of North Carolina. If convicted of the worst charges, Litteral could spend up to 20 years in prison.

Two co-defendants — Christopher James Barker, 41, of Gastonia, and Christopher Todd Campbell, 30, of Mount Holly — were indicted separately on Thursday and indicated that they will plead guilty, the statement said. They each face a maximum of 10 years in prison for firearms charges.

The three came under investigation beginning in June when law enforcement was told that Litteral and Barker were trying to make explosive devices, prosecutors said. By July, investigators had learned they were creating live grenades out of “dummy grenades” sold as artifacts.

Litteral had also begun purchasing .338 rifle ammunition, radios with throat microphones, military-issued Kevlar helmets, body armor and balaclavas – cloth headwear that disguises most of the face, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.

Yeah I read about this a moth ago.

These guys were really freaked out by Jade-Helm.

They decided, instead of waiting for the Military to take their rights, they were gonna start CW II themselves.

At least that’s what Big GOV told, and the MSM reported.

((shrugs))
