As reported here, three members of the ELF/ALF domestic terror groups have pled guilty to charges of arson and criminal conspiracy for their parts in a six year eco-terror spree that caused about $20 million in damages.
This is very good news, in that it is very difficult for law enforcement to get a handle on these two related domestic terror groups, but what is even better is that all three have agreed to "... cooperate in the continuing investigation of 10 others who are scheduled to go on trial Oct. 31 in U.S. District Court in Eugene, Ore., for a series of firebombings around the Northwest from 1996 to 2001, according to the Justice Department."
This is a major break for law enforcement officials on the trail of these two domestic terror groups, and it's hoped here that in the next trial some, or all, of the 10 defendants will also agree to cooperate with authorities, so that they can possibly break the back of ELF/ALF once and for all.
UPDATE: More good news! As reported here, three more people have pled guilty in this on-going investigation, and have agreed to cooperate with law enforcement authorities.
