Three men have been sentenced in federal court for their involvement in a plan to strike a power grid in the northwestern United States. Paul James Kryscuk, Liam Collins and Justin Wade Hermanson were sentenced Thursday for charges including conspiracy to destroy a power grid and illegally manufacturing firearms. Collins and Hermanson were ex-Marines stationed at Camp LeJeune, North Carolina. Prosecutors say the men had connections to white supremacy after Collins and Kryscuk were found posting on a known neo-Nazi internet forum. Authorities say the two recruited others such as Hermanson into their extremist group and researched a previous power grid attack heavily before their arrest.
