A militant Midwestern group of Christian survivalists called the Hutaree was reportedly raided by FBI and ATF agents in Michigan this past Saturday, prompting a cyberattack bombarding the group's website with gay porn and sacrilegious images of Jesus.
According to Gawker, the raids resulted in the arrest of Hutaree leader, Raddock "RD" Merzonick.
"For now, the feds are being tight-lipped about the weekend's militia raids," Gawker reports. "Last night, a spokesperson for the FBI's Detroit field office told us, 'the warrants are sealed and no comment can be made at this time... I can only confirm that there was law enforcement activity in the Lenawee and Washtenaw counties.' Reportedly, the raids involved FBI and ATF agents in Ohio, Indiana, and Michigan and resulted in the arrest of at least seven militia members who were involved in making and selling pipe bombs. Lackomar said his sources told him about raids occurred in Michigan at a wake for a member of the Hutaree who recently died and at the house of RD Merzonick, who he described as the group's leader. Lackomar said he hasn't 'heard of' any Hutaree members being involved with pipe bombs. We sent emails to Merzonick and several other Hutaree members, but have yet to receive a response.
"As news of the raids spread, the Hutaree's web site was overwhelmed by internet trolls posting gay porn pictures and sacreligious Jesus photoshops. Amid all the pictures of penises and Christ in bondage gear, someone calling themselves 'David' posted this ominous message: 'Pay attention to the searches going on right now. Lots of men are in the backwoods at the moment. Bunkers exist that'll keep a few for months.' They may be under attack now, but if David is right, we haven't heard the last of the Hutaree."
