Militia Group Suspects Charged With Conspiracy

(CNN) -- Nine suspected members of a militia group were charged Monday with seditious conspiracy and related charges in an alleged plot to kill a Michigan law enforcement officer and then attack other officers at his funeral, federal prosecutors said.

A federal grand jury in Detroit, Michigan, indicted six Michigan residents, two Ohioans and an Indianan on charges of seditious conspiracy, attempted use of weapons of mass destruction, teaching the use of explosive materials and possessing a firearm during a crime of violence, U.S. Attorney Barbara L. McQuade and Andrew Arena, FBI special agent in charge, announced.

The five-count indictment unsealed Monday charges that since August 2008, the defendants, acting as a Lenawee County, Michigan, militia group called the Hutaree, conspired to oppose by force the authority of the U.S. government...

What Is Hutaree Militia Group?

ACCORDING TO the Hutaree website, Hutaree means “Christian warrior.” Hutaree is Christian miltia group based in Adrian, Michigan. Hutaree members consider themselves soldiers, who will wage a war against the Anti-Christs. At least seven members of militia groups have been arrested in raids conducted in Michigan and Indiana. According to reports, seven people were arrested for allegedly selling pipe bombs in Michigan, Ohio and Indiana. The group is also working for a Colonial Christian Republic.

Mike Lackomar, of Michiganmilitia said “both the Southeast Michigan Volunteer Militia and the Michiganmilitia were not part of the raid. Lackomar said he heard from other militia members that the FBI targeted the Hutaree after its members made threats of violence against Islamic organizations.

One of the Hutaree members called a Michigan militia leader for assistance on Saturday after Federal agents had already begun their raid, said Lackomar. That Michigan militia leader is now working with Federal officials to provide information on the Hutaree member for the investigation, Lackomar reported on Sunday.

It seems there is a dangerous under current of violent talks against various local groups in Michigan, Ohio and Indiana. People are raging and resorting to methods that they think will get them results.

There is surely a need to arrest such dangerous groups that are popping-up, but deep down somewhere, there needs to be a systemic and gradual change in the way politics functions in the society. If there is no adequate change, then the ‘Hutaree’ psyche of violence and killing might spread further into the general populace.
