US Individual Linked to Aussie Gunmen Strikes Plea Bargain with Federal Attorneys
A US man linked with the culprits behind the deadly Wieambilla, Australia shooting that took the lives of six individuals – among them two Queensland police officers – has agreed to 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, known online as “Geronimo's Bones”, is anticipated to admit guilt to a sole offense of unlawfully possessing firearms and ammunition in a deal to be sanctioned by the judiciary this month.
Connections to Australian Shooters
Investigators established clear connections between Day and Gareth and Stacey Train through digital communications.
The Trains, along with Gareth’s brother Nathaniel, killed Queensland police officers Matthew Arnold and Rachel McCrow, and neighbor Alan Dare at a remote property in Wieambilla in 2022.
The Trains were fatally shot in a final shootout with law enforcement, following a protracted siege at the rural site.
American officials said the accused communicated via social media with the Trains around the time of the deadly ambush.
Day referred to Queensland officers as “evil, corrupt, and wicked”, and said they should be shown “absolutely no quarter”, telling them he wanted to be at Wieambilla in person.
Court documents outlined how the couple had posted an end-times recording on the video platform after the shootings, saying authorities “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.
Firearms Cache and Legal Proceedings
Legal records reveal the defendant accumulated a collection of nine high-powered firearms and numerous bullets of ammunition at a country estate in Heber, AZ, that was equipped with a shooting range, gun room and sniper hide.
“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 plea deal filed in the legal system.
He stated he frequently used both the weapons storage and the firearms, and also instructed others on how to use the firearms properly.
The bargain will lead to charges dropped that pertain to the accused making of threats to public figures and federal agents.
According to court documents, the individual had been banned from owning weapons and firearms because of his history of violent crimes.
Day, who has completed 24 months 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 plea deal specifies he will be judged under the minimum range of the legal sentencing standards.
