For weeks, a US Army veteran plotted a terror campaign across LA, authorities say
LOS ANGELES - The targets kept changing, but investigators say Mark Steven Domingo's mission remained as bloody as it was simple.
In one conversation, prosecutors said, the 26-year-old U.S. Army veteran spoke of spraying a Los Angeles police cruiser with bullets. Other times, his rage allegedly redirected toward a nearby synagogue. Sometimes he wanted to kill Christians, authorities said, and at least once, he considered bombing the Santa Monica Pier.
Domingo believed he should "start small," considering one killing practice for the next, according to court documents. He hoped to learn about police response times and build toward a large-scale attack, possibly an explosion that would end with "hundreds and maybe thousands of U.S. citizens injured."
"And then what?" an informant asked Domingo.
"Then the fun starts,"
