"The Department of Justice has alleged that two Texas men plotted a murderous coup d'etat on the island of Gonave, the largest in Haiti, for the purpose of carrying out their rape fantasies. The two men, 21-year-old Gavin Rivers Weisenburg and 20-year-old Tanner Christopher Thomas, have been accused of plotting to take the island by force, utilizing the homeless population of Washington DC, then killing all the men on the island and using the women and children as sex slaves,"
"As part of their plan, the men had gained Haitian Creole language skills and began the process of recruiting people to prepare for the invasion. One of the men, Thomas, had joined the US air force to acquire military skills relevant to the invasion plan. The men have also been charged with producing child pornography, which could land them in prison for between 15 and 30 years if convicted."
"The larger charge, federal conspiracy to murder, maim or kidnap in a foreign country, would land them in prison for life if convicted. According to the indictment, the two men began hatching the plan in August 2024 and continued with it until July of this year. They intended to purchase a boat, weapons and ammunitions as part of their planned invasion, and enrolled in specific training schools."
