The Minutemen was an anti-communist, nativist militia organization formed in the United States in the early 1960s.
The Minutemen organized themselves into small cells and stockpiled weapons for an anticipated counter-revolution.
In February 1968, he was indicted by a federal grand jury in Seattle, Washington, for conspiracy to commit bank robbery.
He skipped bail and went underground for over a year until he was caught in 1969 in Truth or Consequences, New Mexico.
