The battle to discover what else the FBI knows about the assassination plot against Occupy Houston continues: The FBI must explain why it withheld records from a graduate student about an alleged assassination plot against the leaders of Occupy Houston, a federal judge ruled. Ryan Noah Shapiro is a doctoral candidate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology whose research includes the policing of dissent, especially in the name of national security and exploring FBI and other intelligence agency efforts to subvert the Freedom of Information Act, according to his profile on MITs website. Shapiro sent three FOIA requests to the FBI in early 2013, asking for records about Occupy Houston. Specifically Shapiro asked for FBI records about a potential plan to gather intelligence against the leaders of [Occupy Wall Street-related protests in Houston, Texas] and obtain photographs, then formulate a plan to kill the leadership [of the protests] via suppressed sniper rifles.
