The man accused of killing 23 people at an El Paso Walmart pleaded guilty to 90 federal charges including murder and hate crimes.
Dressed in a dark blue prison jumpsuit, wearing a facemask and shackled, Patrick Crusius, showed little emotion as he listened to each one of the names of the 23 people gunned down at a Walmart in 2019 or injured in the attack. He answered guilty to each charge of murder and attempted murder as well as hate crimes.
A date for his sentencing has not been scheduled but federal judge David Guaderrama said it would be in June. Crusius, 24, initially entered a plea of not guilty in 2019. He changed his plea after federal prosecutors said they would not seek the death penalty.
Prosecutors described his plan to carry out the attack including the details of his 10 hour drive from a suburb of Dallas to reach El Paso on August 3,2019.

Another whack-job that should spend his life behind bars (assuming the federal government or Texas doesn't end that life). Doesn't matter if you're a whack-job from the right or a whack-job from the left. Lock them up and throw away the key.

A few steps first, ok? Beginning with identifying them BEFORE 23 people die. Then arrest, try, and convict.

..."Authorities describe a White supremacist manifesto
Authorities say the suspect drove 11 hours from his hometown of Allen, Texas — a Dallas suburb — to El Paso with the sole intent of killing immigrants and Mexicans in the West Texas border city.
About 20 minutes before the massacre, the suspect is believed to have posted a 2,300-word manifesto he wrote titled, “The Inconvenient Truth.” It included White supremacist language, opposed “race mixing” and encouraged immigrants to return to their home countries.
“This attack is a response to the Hispanic invasion of Texas,” Crusius wrote, according to an indictment. “They are the instigators, not me. I am simply defending my country from cultural and ethnic replacement brought on by the invasion.”
Weeks before the shooting, the suspect bought a GP WASR-10 semi-automatic rifle and 1,000 rounds of hollow-point ammunition online, the indictment states."

This took the Federal Death Penalty and case off the table but the Texas case is still moving forward.
