"I'll see you tomorrow, buddy," James Breit called out to his son as U.S. marshals led Michael Breit out of the courtroom.
Rockford police took Breit into custody April 18 after investigating a report of shots fired at Breit's Sunnyside Drive apartment. Breit told police he accidentally shot a round from his new AK-47 assault rifle into a door frame as he attempted to dismantle the gun. Police asked Breit if they could look around. That's when they discovered the cache of guns and bomb-making materials.
Breit allegedly told investigators that he was stockpiling weapons in case there was a revolution and he needed to use them against liberals. Police say they found an essay Breit wrote, "Revolutionary Strike Force," which outlined a plan to kill 1,500 people at a Democratic presidential caucus.
Breit faces federal charges of illegally receiving explosives with intent to use them to kill, injure or intimidate any person, or damage or destroy any property. If convicted, Breit could face up to 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
