Once-loyal deputies continue to turn on Oath Keeper founder Stewart Rhodes.
Wilson may have information indicating close contacts between the Oath Keepers and Trump’s inner circle. The plea documents describe how, on the night of Jan. 6, after the events at the Capitol had wound down, Oath Keepers had regrouped at the Phoenix Hotel.
The plea documents describe Wilson as a veteran of both the military and law enforcement, who first joined the Oath Keepers in 2016. He led a chapter of the militia in North Carolina’s rural Sampson County. According to the Statement of Offense, Wilson adheres to the Oath Keepers ideology that “the federal government has been co-opted by a cabal of elites actively trying to strip American citizens of their rights.
By mid-December, the plea documents state, Wilson was posting his own messages advocating violence, including: “It is time to fight!”
