Two white supremacists accused of plotting to kill Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama and dozens of other black people must remain in jail, a federal magistrate ruled Thursday.
The magistrate granted a defense request to delay a hearing in Memphis, Tennessee, for 20-year-old Daniel Cowart and 18-year-old Paul Schlesselman. He ordered the two to stay behind bars.
Their lawyers want more time to prepare for a hearing on whether the case is sent to a grand jury.
The two are charged with possessing an illegal firearm, planning to steal weapons and threatening a presidential candidate.
Authorities say they plotted a killing spree that would end with them attacking Obama while dressed in white tuxedos and top hats.
