Eight Convicted in Antifa-Linked Texas Immigration Facility Shooting
A Fort Worth federal jury convicted eight people on terrorism charges tied to antifa for a July 2025 shooting outside the Prairieland Detention Center that wounded a police officer; one defendant was convicted of attempted murder. A ninth defendant was found guilty of concealing documents. Prosecutors argued the group carried out antifa-linked violence, while defense lawyers contended there were no antifa ties. The case tests First Amendment rights and how broadly protests can be criminalized as terrorism.
