The four senior citizens from Georgia, accused of plotting a wave of terror that included the use of explosives and the lethal toxin ricin, appeared in court yesterday.
The foursome -- 73-year-old Frederick Thomas, 67-year-old Dan Roberts, 65-year-old Ray Adams, and 68-year-old Samuel Crump -- sported glasses and gray or white hair, and had trouble hearing the judge, although she was using a microphone.
Court documents say the quartet was modeling their plot after an online novel called Absolved, about a small group of citizens that attack U.S. officials. Their families, however, say the charges are "baloney," with Thomas' wife, Charlotte, pointing to his 30 years in the U.S. Navy. She said, "He would not do anything against his country. He loves his country."
