A Wisconsin teenager charged in the deaths of his parents faces wider allegations that he killed them to "obtain the financial means" to assassinate President Trump and overthrow the government, according to a recently unsealed federal warrant. Additionally, the warrant accuses the teen of aligning himself with racist, extremist neo-Nazi ideology and calling for violence as a way to "save the white race."
Nikita Casap, 17, was charged last month by Waukesha County authorities with several alleged offenses related to the deaths of his mother, Tatiana Casap, and his stepfather, Donald Mayer. The charges include two counts of first-degree murder, two counts of hiding a corpse, theft of property over $10,000, and two counts of misappropriating identification to obtain money. Authorities allege the teenager fatally shot the couple at their home outside Milwaukee in February and lived with the decomposing bodies for weeks before fleeing with $14,000 cash, passports and the family dog. He was arrested last month in Kansas.
Casap, in custody at the Waukesha County jail on a $1 million bond, is due in court next month to enter a plea. County prosecutors have offered a glimpse of the federal allegations, which were outlined in an FBI warrant unsealed Friday. The teenager has not entered pleas on any of the charges brought against him, according to court records.
