Background: Nikita Casap appeared in a Wisconsin court for a preliminary hearing on April 9 (Law&Crime). Inset: President Donald Trump listens to a question from a reporter before signing an executive order in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, Monday, March 31, 2025 (Pool via AP).
A Wisconsin teenager accused of gunning down his mother and stepfather had much bigger plans, according to police.
The Milwaukee-based Fox affiliate WITI accessed federal court documents related to the murder investigation involving Nikita Casap, 17. Casap is accused of fatally shooting his mother, 35-year-old Tatiana Casap, and his stepfather, 51-year-old Donald Mayer, in February prior to escaping the state.
Following his capture on Feb. 28, authorities reportedly discovered that Nikita Casap intended to exit the country, as text messages showed interactions with unidentified contacts in Russia.
Now, authorities said Nikita Casap was also allegedly plotting a “political revolution” and the assassination of President Donald Trump.
According to WITI’s reporting on the documents, a search warrant on Nikita Casap’s electronic devices yielded even more disturbing evidence that indicated even loftier, more dangerous plans. The warrant, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, outlined what Nikita Casap was allegedly considering in the months leading up to the killing of his parents.
In Law&Crime’s previous reporting on Nikita Casap’s case, police said the defendant was communicating with an unnamed Russian national on the Telegram app. But in the latest search warrant, per WITI, an interview with one of Nikita Casap’s classmates revealed that he was allegedly “planning to overthrow the government of the United States and assassinate President Trump.”
The warrant also described a “self-described manifesto regarding assassinating the president, making bombs, and terrorist attacks.”
That purported three-page manifesto, entitled “Accelerate the Collapse,” cited Nikita Casap’s supposed goal as “a political revolution in the United States” to “save the white race” from “Jewish controlled” politicians. Authorities said that the same document also apparently included images of Adolf Hitler featuring the words “HAIL HITLER HAIL THE WHITE RACE HAIL VICTORY.”
According to the warrant, the manifesto specifically mentioned “getting rid of the president and perhaps the vice president,” saying, “Point being this manifesto is specifically for the attack that targets Trump.”
More evidence cited by authorities include references to the Order of Nine Angles, which the FBI has designated as “a satanic cult that encourages violence, terrorism, sexual abuse, and child pornography.” In publicly available FBI documents, the group – also referred to as O9A – “follows strong anti-Judaic, anti-Christian, and anti-Western ideologies and aims to incite violence and chaos in western civilization.”
According to the warrant, Nikita Casap had already allegedly paid for materials he intended to use in an attack, including “a drone and explosives to be used as a weapon of mass destruction.” Authorities also reportedly theorized in the warrant that Nikita Casap allegedly killed his parents in order to obtain the funds necessary to carry out these supposed attacks.
According to the warrant, Nikita Casap’s alleged plans for a “political revolution” went back months, and he tried to recruit others to help him, WITI reported.
The defendant was charged with nine felonies including two counts of first-degree intentional homicide and two counts of hiding a corpse. He is being held without bail and is scheduled to be arraigned in court on May 9.
