"Proud Republican" militia leader pleads guilty for 2 deaths to prevent revealing planned overthrow

Last edited Wed Jan 23, 2013, 07:13 PM - Edit history (1)

Another former soldier has pleaded guilty for his role in an anti-government militia authorities say is responsible for the execution-style murder of two teenagers in the Georgia woods in late 2011.

Timothy Joiner, a 22-year-old Iraq War veteran, pleaded guilty Tuesday in Liberty County, Ga., to more than 30 charges of burglary, financial-transaction-card thefts, and violations of the Georgia Street Gang Terrorism and Prevention Act among other crimes, according to the Associated Press.

The two, Michael Roark and Tiffany York, had each been shot twice in the head. Pauley told the Intelligence Report last fall that the couple was killed to keep them from revealing what they knew about FEAR and its plot to overthrow the government through a campaign of terrorist attacks and political assassinations. Authorities said Roark had helped the militia purchase nearly $90,000 worth of weapons and bomb-making materials before he apparently grew disillusioned with FEAR and left the Army. He and York were killed a few days after his discharge.

He is at least the third member of FEAR to plead guilty. After he was indicted last year, Joiner refused comment to the AP, except for declaring, “I’m a proud Republican.’’

figure prominently in that, abetted more or less intentionally, by anarchists behind masks.

Are we talking about a terrorist mafia operating within the Army?

I'm glad they caught the murderer, but how many other people were in this organization?

should be focusing on as well as the SS, CIA, NSA, and the FBI. No member of their families should be able to collect any military benefits from the government and that message should be made loudly and clearly. Why should anyone even associated with these treasonous bastards collect any thing from the government they hate and are trying to overthrow?
