Wisconsin teen accused of killing parents to fund plot to assassinate Trump pleads guilty to homicide

An 18-year-old Wisconsin man accused of killing his parents and stealing their money to fund a plan to assassinate President Trump pleaded guilty to two homicide counts in a deal with prosecutors Thursday, locking himself into two life prison sentences.

Nikita Casap pleaded guilty to two counts of first-degree intentional homicide in Waukesha County Circuit Court in connection with the deaths of his stepfather, Donald Mayer, and his mother, Tatiana Casap, last year. In exchange, prosecutors dropped seven other charges, including two counts of hiding a corpse and theft.

Each homicide count carries a mandatory life prison sentence. Judge Ralph Ramirez could choose to make Casap eligible for parole after he serves 20 years on each count when he is sentenced on March 5.  ...

Federal authorities have accused Casap of planning his parents' murders, buying a drone and explosives and sharing his plans with others, including a Russian speaker. They said in a federal search warrant that he wrote a manifesto calling for Mr. Trump's assassination and was in touch with others about his plan to kill Mr. Trump and overthrow the U.S. government.

"The killing of his parents appeared to be an effort to obtain the financial means and autonomy necessary to carrying out his plan," that warrant said.  ...

For years, leftists and some Democrats have been encouraging people to kill Trump to “protect democracy” and “stop hate.”

The surprise here is that he doesn't seem to have identified as trans. But give him time.
