| [ARABNEWS] Three men charged with plotting to bomb an apartment complex in western Kansas, where Moslem im Prosecutors charged Curtis Allen, Gavin Wright and Patrick Eugene Stein each with conspiring to use a weapon of mass destruction in Garden City, Kansas, and conspiring to deny others’ civil rights. Wright also faces weapons-related charges and Stein is charged with lying to the FBI. Officials have said the men, who face life in prison if convicted, were members of a militia group. The defendants, all white men, pleaded not guilty "Wudn't me." after they were indicted in October 2016. Defense attorneys said Thursday their clients were entrapped by the federal government. "Defendants wanted to plant the message Moslems are not welcomed here ‐ not in Garden City, not in Kansas, not in America," prosecutor Risa Berkower said in opening statements of the trial in federal court in Wichita, Kansas. Berkower said the men were members of the Kansas Security Force, which she described as a militia group. They had formed a splinter group known as "the Crusaders" to "kill as many Moslems as they could" and "to make Moslems uncomfortable in this country," she added. |
