A federal grand jury has indicted a Joplin man on two counts connected with attempts to set fire to the Joplin Planned Parenthood office in October.
Authorities say Jedediah Stout has confessed to setting those fires as well as two attempts to burn down the Islamic Society of Joplin’s Mosque in July of 2012, one of which was successful. It is not known if the U.S. Attorney in Springfield has sought an indictment on those incidents.
The indictment replaces earlier charges.
