Two Texas men, Gavin Rivers Weisenburg, 21, and Tanner Christopher Thomas, 20, are in custody for allegedly plotting to invade Gonave Island, Haiti, to enslave women and children after murdering the local men. They intended to recruit homeless individuals as mercenaries, purchase weapons, and launch a violent coup. Both face charges of conspiracy to commit murder abroad and producing child pornography, with potential life sentences. Their defense attorneys claim they will plead not guilty, arguing the allegations are outrageous.
