Wisconsin Man Who Killed Parents to Fund Trump Assassination Plot Sentenced to Life in Prison

A Wisconsin teenager who killed his parents and stole their money to fund his plan to assassinate President Trump with a bomb dropped from a drone was sentenced to life in prison Thursday. The case -- one of the most disturbing assassination plots in recent American history -- revealed a young man radicalized online who methodically eliminated the only people who might have intervened to stop him, then used their money to acquire the components for an attack. The life sentence closes a case that exposed the terrifying intersection of domestic radicalization, drone technology accessibility, and the erosion of parental bonds in an age of algorithmic extremism.
