Two men associated with an extremist movement whose goal is to incite civil unrest face federal prosecution in the fatal shooting in Oakland last month of a federal security officer, officials said Tuesday.
Air Force Sgt. Steven Carrillo, 32, who was charged in state court last week with the killing of Damon Gutzwiller, a Santa Cruz County sheriff's sergeant, now faces federal charges along with another man in the Oakland slaying.
Federal officials said Carrillo was aided by Robert A. Justus Jr., 30, of Millbrae, Calif., in the killing of federal security officer David Patrick Underwood. Justus drove a white van and acted as the getaway driver in the May 29 Oakland shooting, officials said.
Federal officials, speaking at a news conference Tuesday, said the two men were linked through cellphone records. Officials said Carrillo harbored a hatred of law enforcement and had ties to a right-wing "Boogaloo" movement that believes a second American Civil War is coming soon.
