FORT WORTH, Texas — Jury deliberations have produced multiple guilty verdicts in an alleged July 4, 2025 "ambush" at an ICE detention center in Alvarado.

Eight of nine defendants have been found guilty on federal charges of providing material support to terrorists, rioting, conspiracy to carry an explosive, and use and carrying of an explosive. The ninth defendant was found guilty of corruptly concealing a document and, along with another one of the defendants, conspiracy to conceal documents.

Alleged protest leader Benjamin Song was found guilty of attempted murder of officers and employees of the U.S.

The other defendants charged with attempted murder were found not guilty.

Song was also found guilty of discharging a weapon.

The count of providing material support to terrorists solidifies the federal government's assertion that Antifa is a terrorist organization.

“Antifa is a domestic terrorist organization that has been allowed to flourish in Democrat-led cities — not under President Trump,” Attorney General Pamela Bondi said in a U.S. Department of Justice press release. “Today’s verdict on terrorism charges will not be the last as the Trump administration systematically dismantles Antifa and finally halts their violence on America’s streets.”

Bill Gates – ranked the 19th richest person in the world with $108 billion — is chief among them.

Steve Tisch, chairman of the New York Giants and ranked 1,193rd richest in the world with a $2.2 billion fortune, exchanged several eyebrow-raising emails with the sex predator.

Virgin founder Richard Branson — 1,504th on the Forbes list with $2.8 billion — lives on a private island in the British Virgin Islands a short 20-minute helicopter ride from Epstein’s “pedo island,” and gushed in emails about Russian girls Epstein brought him.

Victoria’s Secret founder Les Wexner, 88, who’s 402nd on the list with $8.8 billion, was one of Epstein’s closest friends and admitted going to his island, which he described as “crummy.” Wexner gave Epstein power of attorney over his finances and has been considered a potential co-conspirator by the feds. He called Epstein a con artist who stole his money.

Private equity founder Leon Black, 74, the 251st richest person in the world with $12.1 billion, was a frequent guest at the Manhattan home of Epstein, who managed his money. He was accused of sexual abuse at Epstein’s mansion, and of allegedly colluding to “silence and destroy” victims, allegations he’s denied. He stepped down from his firm Apollo in 2021.

Hedge funder Glenn Dubin, 68, 1,440th on the list with $2.9 billion, flew on Epstein’s private jet, the “Lolita Express,” 21 times, according to flight logs. He and his wife, Eva Dubin, Epstein’s ex-girlfriend, were close friends of the pedophile, hosting him at their home and vouching for him in 2009 to his probation officer, saying they were “100% comfortable” with Epstein around their children. Epstein even wanted to marry the Dubins’ 19-year-old daughter, Celina, and make her his teen bride. A family spokesperson dismissed the remark as an “offhand comment” that the Dubins were not aware.

LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman, 58, the 1560th richest with $2.7 billion, visited Epstein’s island in 2014 and joked about sending ice cream “for the girls” as a gift afterwards.

Hyatt Hotels heir Tom Pritzker, 75, the world’s 677th richest person with $6.2 billion, flew on the Lolita Express and helped arrange a trip to Southeast Asia for Epstein’s girlfriend, Karyna Shuliak in 2018 “to find a new girlfriend for Jeffrey.” He told her, “May the force be with you.” He stepped down as chairman of Hyatt and said he “deeply regrets” his ties to the perv.

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, 64, the former Cantor Fitzgerald CEO and the 542nd richest person with a family fortune of $7.2 billion, lived next door to Epstein on East 71st Street but claimed he only visited him once in 2005, and got so creeped out by the massage room he never saw Epstein again. It was later revealed Lutnick visited pedo-island in 2012.

Google co-founder Sergey Brin, 52, the third-richest man in the world with $237 billion, visited Epstein’s island in 2007 and exchanged emails about dinners at Epstein’s townhouse.
