HELENA — On Wednesday, a Helena man accused of planning to attack a Helena public school with pipe bombs was arranged in U.S. District Court for the District of Montana.
Logan Pallister, 24 years old, entered a plea of not guilty for the charges of attempted property damage by use of fire or explosive, possession of unregistered destructive devices, and possession of an unregistered silencer.
U.S. Magistrate Judge John Johnston presided over Wednesday’s arraignment. Pallister was detained pending further proceedings.
