🔗 Share this article American Individual Connected to Aussie Gunmen Strikes Plea Deal with Prosecutors An American citizen associated with the perpetrators behind the deadly Wieambilla attack that claimed six lives – among them two officers from Queensland – has accepted a watered-down plea deal. Arizona-based Donald Day Jr. will appear in court on October 21 after finalizing the bargain with American authorities. The convicted felon, referred to online as “Geronimo’s Bones”, is anticipated to plead guilty to a sole charge of unlawfully possessing firearms and ammunition in a deal to be approved by the court this month. Links to Australian Shooters Investigators established direct links between Day and Gareth and Stacey Train through digital communications. The Trains, along with Gareth’s brother Nathaniel, murdered Queensland police officers Arnold and McCrow, and neighbor Alan Dare at a remote property in Wieambilla in 2022. The Trains were fatally shot in a gun battle with police, following a extended standoff at the rural site. American officials said the accused corresponded via online platforms with the Trains around the time of the fatal attack. Day referred to Queensland officers as “malignant, malformed and malevolent”, and said they should be shown “absolutely no quarter”, informing them he wanted to be at the scene in person. Legal filings outlined how the couple had posted an apocalyptic video on YouTube after the shootings, saying police “came to kill us and we killed them”. “Failing to stand against these evil forces makes one a coward … we’ll see you at home, Don. Love you,” they said. Weapons Stockpile and Court Case Court documents reveal the defendant accumulated a collection of multiple powerful guns and hundreds of rounds of ammunition at a country estate in Heber, AZ, that was outfitted with a gun range, gun room and sniper’s nest. “The guns and ammo were stored in the trailer I occupied with S.S., within a space we named the 'gun room',” Day admitted in the agreement submitted in court. He stated he frequently used both the gun room and the weapons, and also instructed individuals on how to use the firearms correctly. The bargain will result in charges dropped that relate to the alleged issuing threats to public figures and federal agents. According to court documents, the individual had been prohibited from possessing guns and arms because of his violent criminal history. Day, who has completed two years in detention, could receive a highest sentence of up to 15 years imprisonment in prison or a penalty of US$250,000 (A$381,500), but the agreement specifies he will be judged under the low end of the legal sentencing standards.
