Sarah Beth Clendaniel, who pleaded guilty to trying to attack and destroy the power grid in the Baltimore region, was sentenced to 18 years in prison with lifetime supervision post-release.

Prosecutors said Clendaniel, 36, from Catonsville, planned to blow up power stations around Baltimore to destabilize the government in a white supremacist plot.

According to prosecutors, the attack would have resulted in $75 million in damages and caused power outages for much of the state.

This sentence comes after Clendaniel accepted a plea deal and ultimately was found guilty of the crimes in May.

    If anything it should make everyone want to go after the bloodthirsty terrorists. You know, the ones who made everyone’s lives worse by knocking out the power grid?

    But reaching that conclusion requires reasoning not addled by lead poisoning and hookworms I guess.

      They also believe that everyone else is too stupid to put it together. They think they’re such geniuses that they will be able to cover their tracks and convince everyone that it’s the brown people’s fault.

        They were right for a while but now they’re literally the first suspects when a sub station goes down.

          Sociopaths often think themselves brilliant for violating social contracts and getting away with it while we figure out how to rebuild social cohesion. That doesn’t make them smart, they’re just doing pvp on a pve server

          Their success is not because people don’t see through their bullshit. It’s because the people opposing them have to follow the rules.
