The now-defunct event, titled "Operation American Spring Target: Citizens arrest trial and execution of Harry Riley," had a total of four attendees, according to a photograph provided to Examiner. The photo also indicates Marshall allegedly established the event.
We reached out to all four individuals listed on the event page. Three said they never heard of the event, but Marshall did not respond.
Instead, he set up a petition at Change.org accusing Col. Riley of treason and demanding he, along with other organizers, be indicted for treason and given the death penalty.
"Colonel Harry Riley is committing treason," the petition says. "His top Operation American Spring aides and he are organizing a coup to be held on May 16, 2014 in Washington DC. This is blatant treason and sedition and needs to be not just addressed but we need indictments and the death penalty!"
As of this writing, five people have signed the petition. The petition does not display the names of those who have signed.
An OAS volunteer who asked to remain anonymous told Examiner Marshall has caused problems before and was booted off the site.
Further research shows that a person by the same name with the same physical features was arrested in 2011 on charges of criminal impersonation and a computer crime in connection with a Craigslist scam involving a condominium.
"On March 17, 9NEWS spoke to Boris Umanskiy who tried to rent a Steamboat Springs condo the weekend of March 12. Umanskiy said he found a Craigslist ad from Marshall offering a condo in The Antlers," 9News reported.
Christina Dickinson added:
Umanskiy said his friends paid Marshall $250 for the place, but they arrived at the condo and they learned it wasn't for rent; it was for sale.
Marshall agreed to cooperate with investigators and promised to help identify victims who've not come forward so they can get their money back.According to the report, Marshall allegedly needed the money to help pay for medical bills.
Having served over 34 years in the military, Col. Riley is no stranger to danger, having received the Silver Star, Bronze Star, Defense Meritorious Service Medal and a number of other decorations for his service.
The adversaries he faced in the military, he said, were soldiers worthy of respect.
But, he added, the individuals engaging in these attacks are something else.
"It’s quite amazing to me that a man, who I assume is a United States citizen, views any other citizen that wishes to exercise his/her constitutional rights of free speech, assembly in a non-violent, peaceful, unarmed status, challenging elected leadership, is an act of treason," Col. Riley said in a statement to Examiner. "Leadership in the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial Branches have all violated their oath, and numerous examples of constitutional violation. Lawlessness abounds in Washington, D.C., individuals must be held accountable for unconstitutional and lawless behavior."
Col. Riley said in an online interview Wednesday his protest has grown to about 1.8 million participants. That interview can be heard here.
