During the ongoing detention hearing, prosecutors said that authorities found that Oath Keeper Jessica Watkins had bomb-making recipes from the "Anarchist's Cookbook."
Watkins just renounced the Oath Keepers during her detention hearing.
"My fellow Oath Keepers have kind of turned my stomach against it," she said, adding that she will cancel her membership when it is over and disband her militia in Ohio.
Jessica Watkins:
"We're done with that lifestyle... I think I'm going to focus on my business, your honor."
She added that she stands "humbled" and "humiliated."
For clarity:
Watkins says she will cancel her membership when her *proceedings* are over and she gets out of jail.

One handy item that kept us informed when our devices were down: a crank radio tuned into Houston Public Media
