A safe first guess on a case like this is that the Feds have just made up another one. The formula is
always the same for them: Find a person or a small group of people who are gullible and bordering on
criminal, then trick them into saying, or sometimes even doing, something stupid and/or evil. See for
example the Miami 7, the Detroit 5, the Lodi 1, the NY 2, the NY 4…
In this case it seems that the self-proclaimed militia leader and his son somehow joined up with a very
strange character named Khristopher Sickels and a few others and planned to make IEDs and use them
against local police.
The funny part is, MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow reported Monday, “The FBI had infiltrated the group for
several months,” attributing this information to Detroit News 4, though the closest thing this writer
can find to that on their Web site is the assertion that “federal authorities had been monitoring the
Hutaree members for some time.”
I’m betting Maddow’s interpretation that he had actually been infiltrated is accurate and that the
worst of whatever these people actually did was at the urging of said federal agent.
