Woman behind Neo-Nazi plot to destroy Maryland's power grid sentenced to 18 years in prison - eviltoast

Sarah Beth Clendaniel, who pleaded guilty to trying to attack and destroy the power grid in the Baltimore region, was sentenced to 18 years in prison with lifetime supervision post-release.

Prosecutors said Clendaniel, 36, from Catonsville, planned to blow up power stations around Baltimore to destabilize the government in a white supremacist plot.

According to prosecutors, the attack would have resulted in $75 million in damages and caused power outages for much of the state.

This sentence comes after Clendaniel accepted a plea deal and ultimately was found guilty of the crimes in May.

    Meth addict dildo seller turned Nazi audiobook narrator.

    That’s a sentence I never expected to hear.

      Sometimes I feel like I’m living in the latest season of The Boys.

      I’d be fine with a meth using lady with some form of legit self run business. This Nazi stuff is a bridge too far though.

        The Boys is written to specifically mirror modern life in way that calls out the fucked up nature of things.

          That’s much of what I didn’t enjoy about the last season. It didn’t really feel like satire so much anymore.

            They did that because people didn’t get that it was satire and were unironically calling Homelander the good guy.
