The att*cks happened
on reservation territory.

Tribal police found
the bodies this morning

and contacted U.S. Border Patrol.

- In Akwesasne?
- Yes.

The victims are all Mohawk. Four dead.

One female survivor.

She's in surgery at
Oxwell Hospital in Syracuse.

We know who we're looking for?

Well, touch DNA on shell casings matched

to a Paul Flanks
and his nephew, Rob Wahl.

They're self-stylized leaders
of the New Patriots.

- Never heard of 'em.
- It's a fringe militia group.

Pro-America, anti-immigration.

They patrol the woods up north
trying to protect the border.

By k*lling a bunch of kids?

Well, three of the victims are Canadian.

Border Patrol says they may
have crossed illegally

to meet their cousins
on the American side.

The Mohawk were there before
there ever was a border.

A lot of them would say it's not illegal

to be on their own land.

Understood. We've just got
a lot of moving parts here.

Canadian victims, American fugitives.

Our legate already deconflicted

with Canadian Mounted

We'll be taking the lead
on this, working with you.

What do we know about Flanks and Wahl?

Priors for trespassing
and breaking and entering.

Neither one has a job.

Only family is Flanks' sister
who is also Rob Wahl's mom.

She lives in Watertown.

Okay. Let's go get these guys.

We've had run-ins
with Flanks and Wahl before.

We see them out in the woods
armed to the teeth

riding around with their buddies on ATVs

supposedly looking for drug smugglers.

Have they ever been violent?

No, but they harass these kids a lot.

They said they didn't like illegals

sneaking across the border
to party and do dr*gs

and trash up their woods.

We were constantly playing referee.

This is more than just harassment.
Something obviously happened.

You saw the tattoo, right?
On one of the victims?

The P- ? Yeah, I think I have a photo.

[SOFT DRAMATIC MUSIC]

Yeah, I've seen it before.

The P is for Chief Pontiac,

is , the year of his uprising.

Well, the New Patriots claim
that it's a g*ng

Well, they're wrong.

The Mohawk worked
with Customs Protection

How'd we go on the cabin?

An arsenal of weapons.

We're running them through NIBIN,

but other than that, nothing.

No writings, no computers.

Place didn't even have electricity.

Well, Flanks was posting from somewhere.

Here, take a look at this.

They started posting on New
Patriots' website a year ago.

"I seen the border crossed
by illegals.

It ain't right."

Then a couple months later,

"Our America, our jobs. Who's with me?"

Then about three months ago with these.

"The purity of our white
nation is being stained

by sewage seeping through
unguarded borders."

"To ensure our heritage
remains untainted,

"we must be resolute
in our duty of eradication.

It's time."

Sounds like n*zi propaganda.

It also sounds like somebody
with a college education.

Flanks barely graduated high school.

Well, maybe he took a writing class.

Or someone was posting from his account.

The voice shifts from passive to active.

He went from wanting
to strengthen border protection

to outright racism and xenophobia.

Okay, here it is.

Paul Flanks flunked out
of basic training,

couldn't hold a job,
no friends, no wife.

New Patriots probably gave him
a sense of identity.

And erased feelings of social exclusion.

He was angry, but not driven
enough to change anything.

So he's a player, not the coach.

So who's the coach?

Well, my bet's
on this mystery poster guy.

The third sh**t started everything
when he k*lled Stephen.

This could be him.

in Bleecher Falls.

They're concerned
about Whitney Anderson.

Who?

One of their agents
I interviewed yesterday.

She was scheduled to work
the border crossing last night,

went home early, said she was sick.

Didn't you say she was pregnant?

My first thought, too,
but she no-showed again today

and they've been calling her
for two hours.

She's not answering.

Anthony k*lled her partner
last night, right?

Yeah. He was covering her shift.

So either Whitney and Anthony
are working together, or...

Or she's his next target.

- Anthony. Is he here?

♪ ♪

You going somewhere?

I actually thought I loved him.

But then we got pregnant

and I brought up marriage
and he went ballistic.

- Did he hurt you?
- Not physically.

I just felt trapped.

I knew he was trying to brainwash me.

How so?

Anthony's mother is half-Persian

and she's ashamed of it.

She actually uses these bleaching creams

to make herself more white.

He internalized all that.

So when he talks about
purification and cleansing,

he's talking about himself?

Yeah.

I found out that he has another child

with a woman even whiter than me.

He would talk about diluting his seed,

cleansing his stain,
all kinds of ridiculous things.

You were supposed to go
to work last night,

but you called in sick.

What was the plan?

You let him across the border,
he carries out the att*cks,

and you let him back in?

Yeah. But I couldn't do it.

All that hate, all that k*lling,

it just... it kept building up
and I couldn't take it anymore.

And then he kills Dan?

I felt so guilty. I just wanted to run.

I'd like you to call him for me, please.

I can't. Please. I can't talk to him.

Unlock your phone. We'll do it for you.

- Where is he going, Whitney?
- I don't know.

What's his problem with the Mohawk?

He's crazy.

All he ever talks about is tribes.
Us versus them.

He grew up here

and he didn't like the Mohawk
constantly crossing the border.

He says they're impure.
He calls them invaders.

Kinda the other way around,
don't you think?

Anthony's smart, but he's not rational.

He thinks that
if you're not % Caucasian,

then you don't deserve
to be in this country.

And the New Patriots,

they fed into that
and they made it worse.

He's not answering.

Was that the plan?
For him to circle back to them?

Got it. Good work.

Hey, state police got a BOLO
on Anthony's car.

Southbound on I- ten miles
from Plattsburgh.

Plattsburgh?

- Oh, God.
- What?

That's where Essex is.

That's our immigrant detention center.

He calls it "the rat's nest."
