A Wisconsin man pleaded guilty to possessing several components that can be made into chemical weapons just months after being sentenced for having destructive devices.
James Morgan, 31, entered his plea in the Eastern District of Wisconsin after facing federal charges of possession of chemical weapon precursors not intended for peaceful purposes. In a press release, acting U.S. District Attorney Richard G. Frohling announced the plea deal, which carries a sentence up to life in prison among other penalties. Morgan admitted to keeping a cache of chemicals and other paraphernalia in a storage unit that was searched by the FBI in December 2023 after they obtained a warrant.
What they found was, by Morgan’s own admission, “scary.”
