- Lloyd R. Woodson (born January 31, 1966) is an American man whose arrest in central New Jersey on January 25, 2010, received national attention in the United States. Woodson was armed with a semi-automatic rifle and was wearing a ballistic vest at the time of his arrest. A subsequent search of his motel room uncovered a large cache of weapons, ammunition, and gear including a grenade launcher, a night vision scope, a police scanner, a Middle Eastern keffiyeh, and a number of maps. One was of Fort Drum, a U.S. military facility located five hours away, near the border of Canada in upstate New York. Woodson said he intended to use the weapons for a violent crime but appeared to have been acting alone. The government did not find any evidence of association with terrorist groups or a terrorist plot. On January 26, 2010, Woodson was charged in state court with various criminal charges. Bail was set at $75,000. On January 29, he was charged in federal court, and consented to be held without bail. On February 25, a county grand jury indicted Woodson for attempted armed robbery (second degree), possession of a firearm for unlawful purpose, unlawful possession of a rifle, possession of a defaced firearm, possession of hollow-point bullets, and possession of high-capacity ammunition magazines. A defense psychiatrist said that Woodson was competent to stand trial, but was suffering from paranoid schizophrenia and incapable of carrying out the crimes with which he was charged. He was convicted and sentenced on September 28, 2012, to 14-and-a-half years in New Jersey State Prison. (en)
