Man Held In Las Vegas Terror Plot Also Facing Child Sex Charges

LAS VEGAS (AP) — One of three men accused of plotting terrorism attacks during Las Vegas protests in May of the death of a man in Minneapolis police custody is now also facing child sexual assault and lewdness charges.

Stephen Parshall's attorney acknowledged Thursday that a 26-count criminal complaint was filed Tuesday in Las Vegas, but said Parshall hasn't appeared yet before a judge.

He says Parshall will plead not guilty. Parshall is in federal custody with two co-defendants in a separate case that includes allegations of ties to an extremist right-wing group dubbed the "boogaloo" movement that supports overthrowing the U.S. government.
