ADAMS, Mass. — U.S. Court documents filed on Monday contain chilling details about suspected terrorist Alexander Ciccolo's plans.
Ciccolo, using the name Ali Al Amriki, had allegedly stated a desire to fight for ISIL, and that he planned to conduct terrorist attacks on civilians, members of the U.S. military and law enforcement personnel.
The estranged son of a Boston police captain was picked up after allegedly buying guns from an informant. The 23-year-old was charged Monday morning in U.S. Court.
U.S. law enforcement officials say Ciccolo was recorded saying he planned to "engage in violence in support of ISIL." That allegedly included plans to attack bars and police stations, including using a pressure cooker he allegedly purchased at the local Walmart.
He also allegedly told witness that he wanted to conduct an attack on a state university using assault rifles and improvised explosives, and that the executions of students would be streamed live on the Internet.
