The police suspect that the group had been attempting to create instigate a violent revolt, as per the taped conversations of some of the leaders of the militant group. The conversations were taped by an undercover agent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, who had infiltrated the ranks of the Christian militant group. According to the prosecuting attorney, the particular agent had also learnt to make explosives while he kept a watch on the militia.

The agent, who has not been identified for security reasons, joined the militant group, who are known as Hutaree, and who call themselves “Christian warriors,” while they were on their way to attending a meeting of a militant organization, which was scheduled to be held in Kentucky, on Feb 6. They were not able to reach their destination due to an unexpected spell of unfavorable weather. However, the agent was able to record a speech given by one of the leaders, David Brian Stone.

The speech heavily points to the fact that they belong to a militant organization, and is expected to serve as a very strong evidence against them, and can play an instrumental role in the conviction of the prosecuted eight militants. In the speech, the militant leader is heard planning a violent encounters with the law enforcement personnel, as a measure to initiate an armed rebellion against the government of the country. However, the plan got busted thanks to the undercover agent, who disguised himself as one of the militia in order to gain information on them, and even underwent rigorous training sessions with them.
