Terrorist cell in N.C.?

Posted by Rhiannon Fionn-Bowman on Tue, Jul 28, 2009 at 12:08 PM

Now, remember: Innocent until proven guilty.

To neighbors and friends, Daniel Boyd was a father who stopped his work at noon each day for prayer. Dylan Boyd, Daniel's son, was a college student at N.C. State University who until last year worked as a clinical services technician at WakeMed Raleigh Campus. Mohammad Omar Aly Hassan was a newlywed; his father owns a Raleigh car dealership.

To federal authorities, these men and four others plotted to kill themselves and others in the name of Islam. Their activities, tracked by FBI agents over three years and detailed in federal indictments released Monday, tell of an elaborate scheme hatched in a quiet Johnston County neighborhood and nondescript apartment complexes across Raleigh and Cary.

Apparently fathers, college students and newlyweds could NEVER be guilty of this crime. Outstanding, Rhiannon. Outstanding. (Another example of why Creative Loafing is a free publication, and that you get what you pay for.)
