RICHMOND, Va. – Three young men pleaded guilty to
vandalizing more than 25 sport utility vehicles, construction
equipment and building sites on behalf of a radical "environmental"
group.
The three, who were in high school at the time of the attacks in
the Richmond suburbs in 2002, face up to five years in prison at
sentencing in April. Under the plea agreement announced Monday,
they must also repay more than $200,000.
The three were affiliated with Earth Liberation Front.
Aaron Linas, Adam Blackwell and John Wade vandalized
construction equipment being used to build a mall, defaced 25 SUVs
at a car dealership and several more vehicles at homes, and defaced
three fast-food restaurants, prosecutors said.
They scrawled graffiti and left notes that accused the victims
of harming the environment and contributing to suburban sprawl.
