William Lee Spartacus Falkner and Jordan W. Rincker were arrested on Friday and Sunday respectively. Both have been charged with conspiracy to commit murder. 

Falker is said to have “experience with drones” in both manufacturing and flying. Online conversations obtained between Falker and co-conspirators revealed that he had planned how to weaponize and deploy drones in hopes of achieving “maximum destructive impact.”

Rincker was reportedly sent $1,200 intended to help facilitate travel arrangements for members of the plot. He was further discovered to have procured, distributed, and received firearms, ballistic armor, night vision, and drone manufacturing components for and with another member of the conspiracy.

The plot, masterminded by an illegal alien who was granted legal status by President Barack Obama through DACA, involved causing a mass-casualty incident by deploying drones and sniper teams while targeting the UFC event. The suspected motivation was to “cause enough chaos to bring about the overthrow of the U.S. government” according to one member of the plot.

“Law enforcement continues to do what it does — move to disrupt and hold accountable those allegedly plotting to do harm on the White House Grounds on June 14,” said Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche in a press release. “Each and every day, the FBI and their federal, state and local law enforcement partners, along with U.S. Attorneys offices across the country, safeguard American communities and our nation’s security.”

The latest arrests bring the total number of individuals implicated in the plot up to seven.
