Teen in Wisconsin Accused of Killing Parents in Plot to Assassinate Trump, Overthrow U.S. Government
A 17-year-old Wisconsin teenager, Nikita Kasap, is facing grave charges after allegedly murdering his parents in a chilling plot fueled by neo-Nazi extremism. Authorities say the murders were part of a larger conspiracy to assassinate former U.S. President Donald Trump and destabilize the federal government.
According to court documents released last week, Kasap is accused of killing his mother, Tatiana Kasap (35), and stepfather, Donald Meyer (51), at their home in Waukesha on February 11. Shockingly, officials believe he lived in the house with the bodies for more than two weeks before the crime was discovered during a welfare check on February 28.
Investigators allege that Kasap stole $14,000 in cash, along with passports, valuables, and a vehicle from the residence to finance his extremist agenda. He was arrested in March during a routine traffic stop in Kansas, where officers found the stolen vehicle, a firearm, ammunition, and cash in his possession.
Federal and local law enforcement agencies assert that Kasap was heavily influenced by extremist ideology. Evidence retrieved from his phone and online accounts reportedly links him to the neo-Nazi group “The Order of Nine Angles.” Authorities say they discovered anti-Semitic writings, pro-Hitler messages, assassination plans targeting Trump, and documents outlining efforts to destabilize the U.S. government.
Additionally, the FBI claims that Kasap had been communicating via the encrypted messaging app Telegram with individuals, including a Russian-speaking contact, discussing his plans in detail. He is also alleged to have acquired drones and materials for building explosives, pointing toward an intent to create weapons of mass destruction.
Kasap is now facing two first-degree murder charges and nine other felony counts under Wisconsin state law, including abuse of a corpse and theft. On the federal level, he has been charged with conspiracy to assassinate a former president, attempted use of weapons of mass destruction, and terrorism-related offenses. He is currently held on a $1 million bond, with a preliminary hearing scheduled for May 7.
While prosecutors stress the calculated and ideologically motivated nature of the crimes, Kasap’s defense attorney has urged the court to consider his client’s age and status as a high school student, suggesting possible mitigating circumstances.
This case, now under joint investigation by the FBI and local authorities, has sent shockwaves across the country, highlighting growing concerns over youth radicalization and domestic extremist threats.
