Seventeen-year-old Nikita Casap from Wisconsin faces serious charges after allegedly murdering his parents. He planned to use their money to assassinate former President Donald Trump and overthrow the U.S. government.

Casap’s Identity and Arrest

Authorities arrested Casap in March 2025. He lived in Waukesha County, Wisconsin. Police charged him with two counts of first-degree intentional homicide. He allegedly killed his mother, Tatiana Casap (35), and stepfather, Donald Mayer (51). Besides murder, Casap faces charges of hiding a corpse, identity theft, and stealing property worth over $10,000. Federal officials are now reviewing additional charges. These include conspiracy, attempted presidential assassination, and building a weapon of mass destruction.

What Investigators Found

Police found the bodies of Casap’s parents on March 1 inside their home. After his arrest, investigators searched his electronic devices. They discovered violent content and messages revealing extremist views. Casap had links to a neo-Nazi group called “The Order of Nine Angles.” According to officials, he actively discussed plans to kill Trump and start a violent uprising. He wanted to “save the white races from Jewish controlled politicians.”

Violent Materials on Devices

His phone contained disturbing materials. It had images of Adolf Hitler and slogans like “HAIL HITLER HAIL THE WHITE RACE HAIL VICTORY.” Officials said he wrote that killing his parents gave him “financial means and autonomy” to execute his plan. Casap reportedly helped buy drones and explosives. He aimed to create a weapon of mass destruction. Authorities believe others may have known about his plans and possibly assisted him.

Court Hearings and Custody

Casap appeared in court on April 9 for a preliminary hearing. The court set his bond at $1 million. He remains in custody. His next court date is May 7 for arraignment. He has not yet entered a plea. Investigators continue to examine Casap’s actions and connections. They are working to identify anyone who may have supported or encouraged the plan. This case raises concerns about domestic extremism and youth radicalization in the U.S.
