Huratee suspect - see slideshot for IDs AP/U.S. Marshals
A self-proclaimed "Christian" militia group had a very evil plan to kill a Michigan law enforcement officer and then kill multiple other officers attending the funeral, according to federal authorities.
Members of the group Huratee were rounded up by the FBI this weekend, including a Whiting, Indiana suspect found in an apartment in suburban Clarendon Hills. His name is Thomas Piatek and authorities say he was visiting a friend at the time of his arrest,
It's difficult to decipher what exactly the Huratee group stands for, based on the organization's website, but members describe themselves as Christian Warriors who are prepared to fight the anti-Christ. (see video below)
In the indictment handed down against nine members today, authorities describe the group as "an anti-government extremist organization which advocates violence against local, state and federal law enforcement".
The indictment alleges Huratee members have been plotting an attack on law enforcement agents since at least 2008. The plan they seemed to have settled on involved killing a police officer somewhere in Eastern Michigan. That is where the alleged leader of the group lives. After an officer was murdered, Huratee members would then use explosives to kill other law enforcement officers in the funeral procession. Typically, funerals for officers killed in the line of duty are attended by representatives from law enforcement agencies across the country.
Authorities say Huratee members received firearms and explosives trainings and routinely underwent military-style drills. They amassed weapons, ammunition, uniforms and communications equipment in preparation for planned assaults.
David Brian Stone of Michigan is identified as the leader of the Hutaree. His wife, Tina Mae, and two sons, Joshua and Brian, are also named in the indictment.
Those arrested are charged with:
- Seditious conspiracy
- Attempt to use weapons of mass destruction
- Teaching/demonstrating use of explosive materials
- Carrying, using and possessing a firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence.
Below is a video embedded from the group's website showing a training exercise.

HAHAHA! Good thing they haven't caught me yet!
If that video is any indication of their patrol and fighting skills I would send in a bunch of girl scouts to clean them up before lunch time.
These Christo-facist terrorist groups are a serious threat to American society. It's a mistake to dismiss the Christians as harmless nut-cases. It's good that Homeland Security is starting to take action.
Is a shame that guys like these claim to be Christians.....Rebel inside rebel for life is more DEVIL that Christian....
They skip one important book in the BIBLE Ephesians Chapter 6 Verse 12 "12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. "
They are not christians... They are CLOWNS.
This is very sad!!! But if they were Muslim then it would be plastered everywhere. Doesn't matter what religion you are, all religion's are peaceful. It is the people themselves who claim they are doing what Allah/God how every you choose to call Him, ask them to do. But all true religious people know that killing of innocent people is forbidden. Don't blame the religion, blame the people!!! For God is all knowing and powerful!!!
Yeah, the feds really should have had some shots fired or a bomb go off to make this one believable. They planned such "horrible" things yet they didn't fight at all when being raided?? Also there is no bomb making evidence, not even enough weapons stockpile to put on TV. But they are EVIL!! The "kill police" plot was information from a paid informant to the feds. Gotta make up something to get paid. Sure they were different than mainstream society. Sure they may have enjoyed shooting and training. Does that make them criminals? I sure hope not! They'll be acquitted.
Got something to say?
