Waukesha, Wisconsin – A disturbing plot to assassinate US President Donald Trump has been uncovered, with a 17-year-old high school student, Nikita Casap, at the center of the chilling scheme. The FBI has charged Casap with the killing of his mother, Tatiana Casap, 35, and stepfather Donald Mayer, 51, after their bodies were found in their Wisconsin home.
According to a newly unsealed search warrant, investigators found evidence on Casap’s phone linking him to a neo-Nazi group called the Order of Nine Angles and expressing admiration for Adolf Hitler. The court document also revealed antisemitic writings in which the suspect detailed plans to kill President Trump as part of a broader goal to overthrow the government.
Casap faces multiple felony charges, including first-degree intentional homicide, hiding a corpse, and identity theft. The tragic discovery came when local officials visited the family’s home in Waukesha, near Milwaukee, after Casap had been absent from school for two weeks.
Tragically, Mayer was found dead from a gunshot wound to the head, while Casap had suffered multiple gunshot wounds around February 11. The suspect was apprehended in Kansas while driving Mayer’s car, containing items stolen from the home, including valuables and a significant amount of money hidden in a Bible.
Investigators revealed that Casap’s writings espoused white supremacist beliefs and advocated for Trump’s assassination to incite a political revolution. The court documents indicated that the double murder was an attempt to gain financial independence to carry out his plan of violence.
Authorities also uncovered communications suggesting Casap was in contact with individuals in Russia regarding plans to murder his parents. The teenager had allegedly acquired a drone and explosives for an attack and planned to flee to Ukraine after completing his heinous acts.
Casap’s preliminary court hearing took place on April 9, where he did not enter a plea. His arraignment, where he will formally hear the charges against him, is scheduled for May 7 in Waukesha County Court. The teenager remains in custody on a $1 million bond, awaiting further legal proceedings. The shocking details of this case have left the community reeling and raised concerns about extremist ideologies among youth.
