Sarah Clendaniel was sentenced to 18 years for plotting to attack Baltimore's electrical infrastructure, highlighting the increasing threat of such acts among white supremacist groups.
Attorney General Merrick B. Garland emphasized that those who attempt to destroy critical infrastructure face severe consequences from law enforcement, reflecting the government's strong stance against domestic terrorism.
Prosecutors indicated that if not intervened, Clendaniel's plans could have caused significant damage to the electrical grid in Baltimore, showcasing the potential impact of extremist actions.
Clendaniel had conspired with Brandon Russell, a member of the Atomwaffen Division, illustrating a troubling collaboration among extremist groups targeting national infrastructure.
