An Ohio man and self-described \u201cincel\u201d who was convicted of plotting a sorority mass shooting now lives two blocks from one of his potential targets \u2014 the Ohio State University campus.<\/p>\n

And the Justice Department wants Tres Genco evicted from his home in Columbus.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe government has serious safety concerns,\u201d the Justice Department said in a motion filed May 26 with U.S. District Judge Susan Dlott of the Southern District of Ohio.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

So does Ohio State.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe support the DOJ motion,\u201d an OSU spokesperson said Wednesday. \u201cStudent safety is our top priority.\u201d<\/p>\n

In its motion, the Justice Department requested that additional conditions be added to Genco\u2019s supervised release. They would include requiring Genco to reside \u201cmore than 2 miles from any Ohio university or college and that his residence location be pre-approved by the probation office.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Justice Department also asks that Genco be banned \u201cfrom entering upon the grounds of any Ohio university or college without prior approval from the probation office.\u201d And it wants computer monitoring software added to his electronic devices.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Genco, who is from Hillsboro, Ohio, was arrested in 2021 and pleaded guilty the next year to one count of attempting to commit a hate crime. He was sentenced to six years in prison, followed by five years of supervised probation.<\/p>\n

Specifically, Genco wrote in a document titled \u201cA Hideous Symphony, a manifesto written by Tres Genco, the socially exiled Incel,\u201d that he had been plotting to \u201cslaughter\u201d women \u201cout of hatred, jealousy and revenge\u201d at a university in Ohio.<\/p>\n

One of his potential targets was a sorority at OSU, the Justice Department said.<\/p>\n

Genco went so far as to buy a bulletproof vest and a skull mask, a rifle and handgun magazines. But he was arrested in July 2021 before he could carry out the plot after his mother reported that he had threatened her and barricaded himself in his room.<\/p>\n

Deputies found Genco\u2019s document, in which he detailed his plans to attack women, as well as his arsenal.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

\u201cIncel\u201d is a mashup of the words \u201cinvoluntary celibate\u201d that refers to a mostly online misogynistic male community that hates women, who they believe owe them sex.<\/p>\n

In addition to the residency restrictions, the Justice Department requested that Genco have no contact with Thomas Develin. <\/p>\n

Develin, Genco\u2019s former cellmate and a former Ohio National Guard member, is serving a 71-month prison sentence for making and selling \u201cghost guns,\u201d which are untraceable homemade weapons, and threatening a Jewish school, according to the Justice Department.<\/p>\n

In their May 30 response, Genco\u2019s public defenders called the Justice Department\u2019s concerns \u201cunfounded\u201d but agreed to the monitoring. <\/p>\n

They also agreed to the request that Genco steer clear of Develin, even though they said Genco has had a positive influence on him. They said Genco, who is Jewish, helped Develin shed his antisemitic views by sharing his grandmother\u2019s Holocaust survival story with him. <\/p>\n

Develin\u2019s parents helped Genco move into his new apartment near OSU in mid-May, the lawyers said in their response. Genco \u201cstrenuously objects\u201d to the Justice Department\u2019s request for \u201cresidential restrictions\u201d and having to report to probation if he wants to set foot on a college campus, his lawyers wrote.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

\u201cThese two restrictions would serve to unjustifiably destabilize Mr. Genco physically, financially, and psychologically,\u201d they wrote. \u201cSpecifically, the restrictions sought by the government would have the effect of ousting Mr. Genco from his Probation-approved residence, causing him and his lease-guarantor to incur financial harm, and would significantly impair his freedom of movement.\u201d<\/p>\n

Genco\u2019s lawyers said in their filing that the government could have asked for such conditions before his supervised release but did not. <\/p>\n

If the Justice Department\u2019s motion is granted, Genco would be branded with a \u201cstigma more sweeping and devastating\u201d than that imposed on sex offenders, and it would ostracize him when he has made \u201cgreat strides\u201d in rehabilitation. <\/p>\n

\u201cIt defies logic that the government would seek to impose a more onerous residency restriction than the restrictions codified into law for registered sex offenders,\u201d the filing reads. <\/p>\n

Before he moved to the apartment near Ohio State, the court records say, Genco lived in an unspecified halfway house from August to April. During that time, he was employed and incurred no violations.<\/p>\n

Dlott has not yet ruled on the competing motions, a survey of available court records indicated.<\/p>\n
