A federal grand jury in May handed down a 44-count indictment against the suspects. Charges include attempted murder of federal agents, assault of federal agents and use of a firearm in a crime of violence.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Missouri said in a news release following the indictment, the men are members of the “self-styled 2nd American Militia,” who planned to travel to Texas to shoot at immigrants crossing the United States-Mexico border.
They also allegedly planned to shoot Border Patrol agents who tried to stop them. When FBI agents arrested the men on the eve of their planned trip, O’Dell and Perry shot at the agents, according to the release.
