Biography
Connor Stevens was an activist involved in the Occupy Cleveland movement who was arrested on April 30, 2012 as part of a federal case centered on an alleged plan to damage the Brecksville-Northfield High Level Bridge in Ohio using explosives. Stevens was charged by the U.S. Department of Justice with conspiracy to use a weapon of mass destruction, attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction, and malicious attempt to destroy property used in interstate commerce. Federal authorities described the arrests as a terrorism prevention operation, while supporters maintained that the case relied heavily on the actions of an undercover FBI informant, raising serious concerns about entrapment. Stevens ultimately pleaded guilty and was sentenced to federal prison.
