He is probably CIA. The CIA and FBI heavily recruit from Utah and Mormon communities because of their allegiance to the Babylonian American system.

No he is about to meet his fate. He won't make it back here but he probably knew that when he signed up to serve.

What risk to US national security did any of these folks pose?

You don’t think that there are US national security interests with the DRC?

This guy had zero chance of being successful at his “coup” attempt. He’s not a serious enough player to be on intelligence’s radar.

Does it help or hurt US national security interests with the DRC that a DRC national that we took in as a refugee planned and plotted a coup attempt from the US and employing US nationals?

Generally, the government of a nation would prefer if their political opponents become exiles.

There’s your opinion and then there’s actual experts in diplomacy and US-Congo relations.

The US will provide consular assistance to him as they would provide it to any citizen. Consular assistance means you get a visit from a consular officer to make sure your human rights aren't being violated, check on your health, etc. You are subject to the laws of the country you are in, so the State Department will try to make sure you are given the rights you are entitled to in that country, which may be different than ours.

If the State Department makes a determination that you are wrongfully detained they will pressure the country detaining you to release you. This doesn't seem like such a case.

Anyway I'm not buying his story and I'm glad the Congolese police captured them.

People need to learn & accept that you cannot do whatever you want to do in other countries.
