An 18-year-old Wisconsin teen murdered his own parents in cold blood to bankroll a drone assassination of President Trump, only to rot in prison for life.
Story Snapshot
- Nikita Casap shot his mother and stepfather in February 2025 to steal $14,000 for his Trump plot.
- He lived with their decomposing bodies for two weeks before fleeing with the family dog and cash.
- Affiliated with neo-Nazi Order of Nine Angles, Casap wrote a manifesto praising Hitler and plotting revolution.
- Pleaded guilty in January 2026; judge sentenced him to life without parole on March 6, 2026, deeming him irredeemable.
Casap’s Radicalization and Assassination Plot
Nikita Casap, 18, from Waukesha, Wisconsin, immersed himself in the Order of Nine Angles neo-Nazi group in late 2024. This decentralized network pushes accelerationism, violence to collapse society, and racial extremism. Casap penned a manifesto hailing Hitler and the white race. He plotted President Trump’s death using a drone with explosives or an AK-47 to spark revolution. Contacts included Russian speakers; he planned Ukraine exile post-attack. Common sense reveals online echo chambers warp young minds into monsters.
The Double Murders Unfold
Casap shot his mother Tatiana Casap, 35, and stepfather Donald Mayer, 51, around February 11, 2025, at their Waukesha home. He stole $14,000, jewelry, passports, a gun, and Mayer’s SUV. For two weeks, Casap coexisted with their decomposing bodies, showing chilling detachment. Mayer’s mother triggered a welfare check after Casap skipped school. Bodies discovered early March 2025. This parricide funded terror, a rare fusion of family betrayal and ideology.
Arrest, Guilty Plea, and Life Sentence
Casap fled February 28, 2025, and Kansas police arrested him during a Wyandotte County traffic stop. Waukesha County Sheriff’s Department coordinated. Federal probes uncovered manifesto, explosives plans, O9A ties. Casap pleaded guilty January 8, 2026, to two first-degree homicide counts. Prosecutors, led by DA Boese, dropped lesser charges. On March 6, 2026, the Circuit Court judge imposed life without parole, citing zero rehabilitation chance and public danger.
DA Boese described the plot’s shift from AK-47 to explosives and Ukraine escape. FBI affidavits highlighted Casap’s collateral death indifference. Federal charges for conspiracy and weapons of mass destruction linger unresolved. The plea deal secured swift justice, aligning with conservative priorities of accountability over endless appeals.

Impacts on Family, Community, and National Security
Victims’ relatives, like Mayer’s mother, bear profound loss. Waukesha suburb, 17 miles from Milwaukee, reels from local horror amid post-2024 election tensions with Trump in office. Short-term, teen extremism scrutiny rises; long-term, life sentence deters copycats. Socially, it spotlights online radicalization gaps in youth mental health. Politically, it spotlights far-right threats, urging robust counter-terror policies and drone weapon regs. FBI ramps O9A monitoring.
