FBI arrests Bellingham woman accused of aiding Tumbler Ridge shooter

James Cody Bryant, a 30-year-old resident of Bellingham, Washington, was arrested by the FBI on October 6, 2026, and charged with conspiracy to murder persons in a foreign country. Prosecutors allege Bryant helped Jesse Van Rootselaar plan the February 2026 mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia, which killed eight people. Evidence suggests Bryant provided financial support, technical advice, and agreed to livestream the attack, though she also attempted to dissuade the shooter from carrying it out.

Portland teen charged with domestic terrorism after cafeteria chemical mix

A 15-year-old student at Benson Polytechnic High School in Portland faces 19 criminal charges, including domestic terrorism and attempted murder, after mixing chemicals in the school cafeteria on September 8. The incident released toxic hydrogen sulfide gas, critically injuring the teen and requiring medical care for at least seven others. Multnomah County District Attorney Nathan Vasquez is seeking to move the case from juvenile to adult court, citing the severity of the threat and prior evidence of the teen’s interest in explosives. While the defense team denies the allegations and notes the teen is receiving inpatient mental health treatment, prosecutors have linked the case to the violent online network '764,' which the FBI says targets children through social media and gaming platforms.

Florida Jury Acquits Deputy in Fatal Shooting of Airman Roger Fortson

A Florida jury acquitted former Okaloosa County deputy Eddie Duran of manslaughter in the 2024 shooting death of U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Roger Fortson. The verdict, reached after two hours of deliberation, ends the criminal case but leaves a federal civil rights lawsuit pending. Duran, 38, faced up to 30 years in prison. Fortson, 23, was killed in his Fort Walton Beach apartment after answering the door with a handgun during a false domestic disturbance call. The family’s attorney, Ben Crump, vowed to pursue accountability through civil courts. Duran’s defense argued he acted in self-defense, while prosecutors claimed Fortson posed no threat.
