Dallas Humber, 35, of Elk Grove, pleaded guilty to charges related to her leadership of the Terrorgram Collective, a transnational terrorist group. The Justice Department and Acting U.S. Attorney Kimberly A. Sanchez announced that Humber admitted to soliciting hate crimes, soliciting the murder of federal officials, and conspiring to provide material support to terrorists.
According to court documents, from July 2022 until her arrest in September 2024, Humber led the Terrorgram Collective, which promoted white supremacy and encouraged acts of violence. Prosecutors stated that she and other members sought out individuals to commit hate crimes and attacks on critical infrastructure while providing operational guidance for these acts.
Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division said: “Hate and terror have no place in this country or abroad. By securing this conviction, my office makes clear that purveyors of these heinous crimes will be brought to justice.”
Assistant Attorney General for National Security John A. Eisenberg added: “Humber led a transnational terrorist group promoting white supremacy, hate crimes, and violence, including soliciting the murder of U.S. government officials. Her actions posed a direct threat to our citizens and national security, and the National Security Division will hold her, as well as others who commit these illegal acts, accountable for their terrorist aims.”
Acting U.S. Attorney Sanchez stated: “Humber solicited murders and hate crimes based on the race, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, and gender identity of others. The U.S. Attorney’s Office will continue to work tirelessly with our partners in law enforcement and in the U.S. Department of Justice to investigate and prosecute those who commit such violations of federal criminal law and keep our people and public officials safe from hate-fueled crimes of violence.”
The government outlined several plots inspired by Humber’s group in both the United States and internationally—these included planned attacks on energy facilities in New Jersey and Tennessee; an attempt to assassinate an Australian official; attempted murders linked with plans against a federal official in Wisconsin; shootings at an LGBT bar in Bratislava; school shootings in Brazil; and stabbings outside a mosque in Turkey.
The FBI Sacramento Field Office led the investigation with help from domestic and international law enforcement agencies. Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert Abendroth worked alongside Senior Litigation Counsel Christopher Perras and Trial Attorney Samuel A. Kuhn from the Civil Rights Division as well as Trial Attorney Patrick Cashman from the National Security Division.
Sentencing is scheduled for December 5, 2025 before U.S District Judge Dena Coggins. The plea agreement anticipates a sentence between 25-30 years but final sentencing will be determined by the court.
