Federal prosecutors said Wednesday that four elderly militia members charged in a plot against citizens and federal employees were targeting Attorney General Eric Holder and former Rep. Cynthia McKinney as potential assassination targets.
Holder and McKinney's names were included on a hit list compiled by 73-year-old Frederick Thomas, federal prosecutors said at a bond hearing. Authorities also said Thomas had stockpiled 52 guns and 30,000 rounds of ammunition in his Georgia home. All four suspects pleaded not guilty.

PERMALINK | COMMENTS | RECOMMEND RECOMMEND (0)As the grand jury in the Cynthia McKinney (D-GA) case issues subpoenas to every third Hill aide in its quest for the truth, we thought it would be a good time to post the police report that got the whole thing rolling.
According to the report, McKinney delivered a "closed fist" blow.
