Violence was very, very rare, not the norm.

But January 20th?

That was different.

Because that day, Chris pulled over a Toyota Prius on Interstate 91 in a town just about a half hour south of the Canadian border in Vermont.

And it was supposed to be just a standard stop.

Apparently, authorities had reason to believe that one of the passengers in the car might have an expired visa, which kind of begs the question, okay, well, who was in the car?

Why was that an issue?

Well, inside the Prius that day was 21-year-old Teresa Youngblood.

She's from Washington State, and she also had a friend with her named Felix Baucold, a German citizen who now identified as a woman and used the name Ophelia.

So both Teresa and Ophelia were already on federal law enforcement's radar because just a few days earlier, a hotel employee in Vermont had reported seeing the pair dressed in full tactical gear.

Obviously not something that you normally see every day.

And I'm talking about black clothing, body armor, visible firearms.

They were also apparently carrying night vision equipment, a ballistic helmet, dozens of rounds of hollow point ammo.

I mean, just something that is definitely scary.

And let me just talk about Teresa for a second here.

Because it turns out, just like Daniel, Teresa was actually a missing person.

according to her parents anyway, who had reported her missing back in May of 2024.

They told the police that their daughter had cut off all contact, that she stopped talking to her friends, changed her number, and that they were afraid that she was in a very controlling relationship.

And on the morning of January 20th, Ophelia was seen at a local Walmart buying aluminum foil and then wrapping objects with it while making a phone call.

Just, I mean, talk about paranoia, right?
