Mick sent us an article about an attack on a power station out in Oregon a month or so ago. I thought it a one-off and moved on. I was wrong.<\/p>\n

FBI arrests man, woman with ‘extremist’ views in alleged power grid attack plot targeting 5 substations<\/h3>\n

The FBI and U.S. Attorney’s Office officials in Baltimore announced they had arrested two individuals, a man and a woman, with extremist views who were allegedly attempting to attack the power grid in Maryland.<\/p>\n

FBI officials told reporters they believe this was a “real threat” that had been thwarted.<\/p>\n

Sarah Beth Clendaniel, 34, of Catonsville, Maryland, and Brandon Clint Russell, 27, of Orlando, Florida, are charged through a federal criminal complaint with conspiracy to destroy an energy facility, Erek L. Barron, U.S. Attorney for the District of Maryland, and Special Agent in Charge Thomas J. Sobocinski, of the FBI Baltimore Field Office, announced Monday.<\/p>\n

Clendaniel spoke to an FBI informant about her plan just last week, according to authorities. Russell is an alleged neo-Nazi figure who authorities say posted locations of substations.<\/p>\n

Clendaniel allegedly told an FBI confidential source that she planned to target five substations…<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Russell is described as a neo-Nazi intent on exercising his “racially or ethnically motivated violent extremist beliefs.” His co-terrorist, Clendaniel was in a Maryland prison for robbing convenience stores with a machete. There is no connection with prior power grid attacks, according to Sobocinski. It may even be true; pity there’s zero credibility at the agency.<\/p>\n
