Feds: Alaska couple had 20 names on hit lit

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — A rural Alaska couple accused of domestic terrorism had 20 names on a hit lit and had moved to the operational phase.

That’s according to new court documents filed against Paul and Nadia Rockwood of King Salmon. They have pleaded guilty to lying about the list and making false statements to the FBI.

Authorities say Paul Rockwood became a strict adherent to a violent Jihad-promoting ideology after converting to Islam.

The hit list contained 20 targets, none in Alaska and none named.

Officials claim the list consists of seven individuals, seven military members, two religious organizations, two publishing companies, a publishing executive and a media personality.

Sentencing is set for Aug. 23. He’s expected to get eight years maximum, and his wife probation.
