FBI & Federal Courts

The FBI arrested 20‑year‑old Lucas Alexander Temple in Florida on federal counts of distributing information on making explosives and possessing an unregistered short‑barreled shotgun, alleging he posted bomb‑making instructions and violent neo‑Nazi propaganda in Signal chats. A search found a sawed‑off Springfield shotgun, extremist materials, and a handwritten note outlining plans to wear body cams to livestream an “operation” and place motion‑activated bombs, according to court documents; a magistrate judge ordered Temple detained pending trial.
