Nikita Casap, a 17-year-old from Wisconsin, has been charged with murdering his mother and stepfather to fund an alleged plot to assassinate former US President Donald Trump and overthrow the government. Casap was arrested in Kansas with $14,000 in cash, jewellery, a revolver, passports, and his dog. A federal affidavit said he praised Hitler, had ties with a Russian speaker, and planned to flee to Ukraine. His antisemitic three-page manifesto cited chaos as motivation. Authorities found neo-Nazi content and bomb-making plans. Casap, who faces nine felony charges, including use of weapons of mass destruction, is due in court on May 7. (PC: X/@PawlowskiMario)
