According to the complaint, Perry’s phone was seized, and showed extensive contact with Faye leading up to his arrest.

“Specifically, Faye expressed a desire to travel with Perry and another individual to the U.S. /Mexico border and commit acts of violence,” the complaint stated.

In March 2023, the FBI introduced an undercover agent to Faye on TikTok. After exchanging messages, Faye provided the agent with his phone number for further communication.

On April 1, 2023, three undercover agents met with Faye, in person, along with his two sons. During the meeting, Faye asked if the undercover agents were federal law enforcement.

After confirming that the undercover agents were not law enforcement, he began discussing his beliefs that the government was “training to take on its citizens” and allowing migrants to enter the country to assist them.

      His name is Simon. He’s ~2 years old. He is primarily white, with a few black spots on his face, and a solid black tail. He doesn’t know how to meow, but he makes a chortle sound much like a penguin. His favorite activity is hiding his toys (and whatever he thinks are my toys) and then chortling relentlessly until I go find it. Then he repeats the process all fucking day long, usually in the same spot…
