Sterling Man Charged in Murder Plot To Stay in Jail

A Loudoun County judge denied bond Thursday for a Sterling man accused of a murder-for-hire plot targeting his ex-wife, according to media reports.

Dallas W. Brumback Jr., 35, was arrested last week and charged with attempted capital murder after he allegedly solicited a man to kill his ex-wife, according to the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office. He is being held at the Loudoun County Adult Detention Center

The ex-wife, Lindsay Brumback, took the witness stand Thursday in a hearing at the county courthouse in Leesburg to urge the judge to keep Brumback behind bars, according to a report from WRC-TV Channel 4.

Channel 4 reported Monday that Brumback has ties to a whites-only Christian organization. Brumback helped organize a conference in 2012 in Alabama where Ku Klux Klan banners were displayed and only certain white Christians were allowed, according to a report on WRC-Channel 4.

The criminal investigation began in November, after Brumback allegedly met with a subject known to him and reached an agreement to have his ex-wife murdered, according to the Loudoun sheriff’s office.
