The above tweet apprently refers to the 20-year-old Christopher Lee Cornell from Ohio who was arrested last Wednesday for plotting to attack the US Capitol building.
Cornell was last in the news on Gigwise when he claimed that Axl Rose was responsible for complicating Guns N' Roses' career.
"What I remember most was Duff [McKagen] and Slash and everyone else being regular, sweet, warm guys in a rock band that just wanted to play rock music. And then, like, there was this Wizard of Oz character behind the curtain that seemed to complicate what was the most ideal situation they could ever have been in."
