Summary
A Missouri man known online as “Dug” faces federal charges after his explosive-making tutorials allegedly helped fuel the New Orleans attack — and a deadly explosion in Missouri. Jordan Derrick, a former Army demolitions expert turned viral instructor, posted detailed, step-by-step guides on YouTube, Patreon, and Odysee, earning thousands monthly from fans and VA benefits. Prosecutors say his content directly inspired the attacker who planned to detonate devices on Bourbon Street — thankfully, they were defused. Derrick, indicted on four counts including illegal explosives manufacturing, could face up to 40 years if convicted. The FBI is now investigating nationwide cases tied to his dangerous online empire.
