Man angry with son-in-law fingers him as terrorist to FBI

5 days ago

STOCKHOLM (AFP) — A man in Sweden who was angry with his daughter's husband has been charged with libel for telling the FBI that the son-in-law had links to al-Qaeda, Swedish media reported on Friday.

The man, who admitted sending the email, said he did not think the US authorities would stupid enough to believe him.

The 40-year-old son-in-law and his wife were in the process of divorcing when the husband had to travel to the United States for business.

The wife didn't want him to travel since she was sick and wanted him to help care for their children, regional daily Sydsvenska Dagbladet said without disclosing the couple's names.

When the husband refused to stay home, his father-in-law wrote an email to the FBI saying the son-in-law had links to al-Qaeda in Sweden and that he was travelling to the US to meet his contacts.

He provided information on the flight number and date of arrival in the US.

The son-in-law was arrested upon landing in Florida. He was placed in handcuffs, interrogated and placed in a cell for 11 hours before being put on a flight back to Europe, the paper said.

The FBI contacted Swedish intelligence agency Saepo, which discovered that the email tipping off the FBI had been sent from the father-in-law's computer.

The father-in-law has been charged with aggravated libel.

He has admitted sending the email, but said he didn't think "the authorities were so stupid that they would believe anything. But apparently they are."

He said he "couldn't help the US authorities' paranoid reaction".

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

It is like Joseph McCarthy all over again.

I mean really - if someone wants to ruin your life, this is such an easy thing to do. Have someone overseas rat the target out to the FBI. I guess you are guilty until proven innocent (except you will never be proven innocent), put on no fly lists, unable to work, and unable to tell anyone about it.

He fingered his son-in-law?? :o :o

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

Oh how ridiculous! They ought to throw the FIL in jail for causing so many problems.

He sent the email to the FBI - what does that have to do with Sweedish law?

FIL is being charged under Swedish law for the aggravated libel. I am sure the SIL returned and likely wanted to press charges or the Swedes charged him on their own.

Of course, it didn't help that the son-in-law was arrested with half a dozen unlicensed cinnamon rolls in his possession...

Yes, every thread is doughnut thread on VJ today! :dance:

It was only a matter of time for something like this to happen.

I would think it would be difficult to drop the label of "terrorist". To the US's defense, I imagine it is extremely difficult to profile a terrorist, hence the creation of the ever popular "terror list".

yeah. talk about an awkward silence.

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies."
