The three men, who were all corrections officers, were convicted after an FBI informant told authorities that the men planned to kill a black inmate after the incarcerated man was released from prison. The plan was allegedly hatched at a meeting of the Traditionalist American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, where all three men worshipped under the leadership of pastor Wyatt P. Pull.
(One of the officers, Moran--yes, his real last name) argue that it was unfair that his retirement could be stolen just because he tried to have someone killed. Moran argued that he didnt plot the murder while he was at work, so his benefits shouldnt be stripped away, which is a bold statement, even in Florida.
But apparently, the K in 401k does not stand for Klan. His request was denied.
