COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Knox County man who’s accused of planning an attack on the White House lawn has yet to show up in court.

For the second time, Tycen Proper has waived his right to a hearing.

Proper is 19-years-old from Danville, Ohio, near the Mt. Vernon area.

He faces four federal charges, including conspiracy to commit a crime against the U.S. and attempted murder of an officer or employee of the country.

Just over two weeks ago, his parents turned him in to the police after they saw signs he was distancing himself from them and chatting with random people online.

The case was then turned over to the FBI.

According to court documents, the online group was made up of individuals who claimed to be ex-military and Christian-based, and that they were plotting an attack during the UFC event that occurred on the White House lawn earlier this month.

Proper’s parents said their son had bought tons of ammunition, a shotgun, quit his job recently, and was a leader in planning the attack.

Court documents also said Proper admitted that members of the group wanted to protect the U.S. because it was headed in the wrong direction and needed to be torn down and rebuilt. 

Monday, when he didn’t show up for court, Spectrum News 1 reached out to his attorney, Joseph Patituce. Patituce said Proper waived his right to his preliminary hearing and that the matter will be passed on to a grand jury.

Spectrum News also reached out to the Department of Justice and is awaiting its response.

Adam Proper, Tycen Proper’s father, said early Monday that the family is not ready to talk yet, but eventually they will.
