New York man gets 8 years in X-ray weapon plot that targeted Muslims

Crawford, 51, an industrial mechanic at General Electric in Schenectady, where Feight was a subcontractor, was convicted of attempting to produce a deadly radiological device, conspiring to use a weapon of mass destruction and distributing information about weapons of mass destruction. He could face 25 years in prison at his sentencing in March.

Investigators taped Crawford, a Navy veteran and also a family man with no criminal history, calling Islam “an opportunist infection of DNA” and approaching a Ku Klux Klan grand wizard who was an FBI informant for support with the X-ray.

Huh. Well, I've seen everything. The sentence sounds appropriate for the crime (25 y).

 

[KevanG]

Sounds like a supervillain.

Or Fry from Futurama.

...

That's not how religions and DNA work, **** head.

Article is bizarre.
It doesn't say what the heck the "X-ray device" is, which is the component the FBI was actually providing.
And he was building a "remote control" for it? Are they talkinging about a drone?

Edit:
Second part to article: http://www.nydailynews.com/news/pol...ray-target-ku-klux-klansman-article-1.1378705 It just gets weirder.
Here they elaborate where they claim Gov. Cuomo was a target.

And describe it as "a device that could “covertly omit ionizing radiation strong enough to bring about radiation sickness or death against Crawford’s enemies”

Yet the first article says
"He procrastinated for six months in delivering the remote control while refusing to integrate it to directly operate the actual X-ray machine the agents brought, "

So the FBI agents "created" and brought a supposed X-ray device?
He "refused to integrate it"?
Did he actually build anything?
Does this "device" even exist? Who made it up? The FBI?
And who asked him to build and "integrate" the "remote" for it?

If the FBI didn't catch him, he would have been foiled by the Spider Man from the 1970s animated series.

This is probably part of a greater scheme to recover Nic Cage's stolen dinosaur skull. Maybe dinosaurs were gods to the reptilians back before the dinosaurs' meteor-spaceship crashed into the Earth.

He would have gotten away with it, if it wasn't for you meddling kids!

I can imagine their meetings are like the KKK dialogue from Django Unchained.
