Member of white supremacist group charged in alleged plot to solicit murder of ‘high-value targets’
Published By admin
A 24-year-old man is facing charges after allegedly working with a transnational terrorist group to create a hit list of “high-value targets” for assassination that included U.S. officials, nongovernmental organizations and leaders of private companies, federal prosecutors said Wednesday.
Noah Lamb was charged and indicted in Northern California federal court with eight counts of conspiracy, soliciting the murder of federal officials, doxing federal officials and interstate threatening communication, according to a federal indictment unsealed Wednesday.
Authorities allege that between November 2021 and September 2024, Lamb collaborated with members of the Terrorgram Collective to create a list of targets they viewed as “enemies of the cause of white supremacist accelerationism,” the indictment states.
The Terrorgram Collective is described as a network of white supremacist, neo-Nazi and accelerationist groups who promote violence and white supremacy, according to the Anti-Defamation League. The group primarily connects through the social networking app Telegram.
An attorney for Lamb declined to comment on the case.
The indictment does not name any of the targets but says that the list included a U.S. senator, a U.S. district judge, a former U.S. attorney general, as well as state and local officials, nongovernmental groups and business leaders.
