These guys were the real deal. The leader of this bunch trained in Afghanistan and Pakistan for a few years(changed). The leader and his brother also robbed a bank in Pakistan. Yaghi is on the lam.
The indictment names Daniel Patrick Boyd, 39, as the group's ringleader, and authorities said he recruited others to join his cause. Prosecutors have said Boyd was frustrated by the moderate mosques in the Raleigh area and began holding private prayer services in his home.
........................
The Boyds lived at an unassuming lakeside home in a rural area south of Raleigh and had a family-operated drywall business.
Neighbor Jim Stephenson said he often saw them walking their dog.
"We never saw anything to give any clues that something like that could be going on in their family," Stephenson said of the indictment.
Boyd's two sons, Zakariya, 20, and Dylan, 22, were also named in the indictment. The others charged are Anes Subasic, 33; Mohammad Omar Aly Hassan, 22; and Ziyad Yaghi, 21. Hysen Sherifi, 24, a native of Kosovo and a legal U.S. resident, was also charged. He was the only non-U.S. citizen arrested.
And people still wonder why we need to continue our war on terrorism. FYI, not far from where I live.
