A Modesto man accused of planning a Christmas Day attack on Pier 39 in San Francisco last year pleaded guilty in federal court in Fresno today to a charge of attempting to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization.
Everitt Jameson, 26, a former tow truck driver, believed the organization was the Islamic State group, according to a statement of facts included with his plea agreement.
Jameson entered the plea before U.S. District Judge Lawrence O'Neill and will be sentenced by O'Neill on Sept. 4. The prosecution and defense agreed on a sentence of 15 years in prison.
