Mount Dora man takes plea deal in Capitol riot case (WKMG-TV, Orlando, June 19, 2023)

A Mount Dora man has pleaded guilty for his involvement in the attack on the U.S. Capitol.

FBI agents arrested Brian Preller, 33, last August as part of their investigation into a militia that planned violence on Jan. 6, 2021.

In court on Friday, he agreed to a plea deal, where he entered a plea of guilty to one charge of civil disorder.

Peller was one of five Central Florida residents whom agents linked to a militia group called B Squad, which identified with the ideology of the Three Percenters.

The Southern Poverty Law Center said “Three Percenters” often believe the government is working to infringe on citizens’ rights.
