#4  Survivalists don't live in Queens. Or NYC. Suspect he's going to show ties to Anitfa or some other criminal organization.

#2  Having survivalist's books is not a crime. Although prosecutors might try to say these books speak to motive. Causing a fire in a building where you live because you have bomb-making materials onsite is a crime.
