I asked this in another thread, but how could they track this guy's prints like that? From what I read, he didn't have a criminal record.

He's a former Army officer. It's the same reason my prints are "on file", although I've never been arrested.

You don't have to be a criminal to have your fingerprints on record.

He was military, they have fingerprints.
If he got a concealed carry, he'd have prints, a gaming license, he'd have prints, etc.

Hope that answers your question.

This POS was a former Army Officer and had an Oregon driver's license.

The Army has his prints and so does the Oregon DMV if he has a recent license.

He was fingerprinted as part of the process of applying for admission to the Oregon State Bar, like all other applicants.

If you have a security clearance you prints will likely be on file.

Prints from his military file.

He's ex-military.

The government has two sets of my prints, one from the military and one from a routine procedure for a wall street job, one requiring a license. I have no criminal record.

You don't need a criminal record to have your fingerprints with the FBI. Mine went there 3 different times for 3 different reasoms, and I have never been remotely part of a criminal investigation:

They got my prints:

When I went into the Army,
When I worked briefly for the Dept of Corrections
When I worked for an Airline and needed an airport ID.

Glad you referenced the past tense in that line!

He was in the Army....they take your fingerprints there.

Also, I don't know about Oregon but some States take your fingerprints when you pass the Bar.

I needed to be printed after I got my broker's license and was bonded. I'm sure mine are on file too. You don't have to have a criminal record.

As an "officer of the court" fingerprinting is routine for bar asociation acceptance.

You've already got the how. Now for the really interesting question:

WHY did they think to try matching the finger prints found on a bag in Spain, to an American in the U.S.?

I seriously doubt we share those data with the Spanish government. Somebody had a reason to suspect him.

As I noted above, we know who this guy's been talking to. What this tells me is, the FBI knows about a lot more people than this one guy.

He's a service member... Finger printed when he entered service.
He's been flagged as a "possible" problem since he resigned his commision and converted to the "Religion of Peace".
His name turned up on a visa/passport list as having been in or near Spain prior to the attacks.
He's more than likely a vocal supporter of Islam and Islamist causes. Ran his yap in front of an agent or CI.
Turn him over to the Spanish and let them plop him in one of their nastier prisons...

I don't have a criminal record, but I was printed 20 years ago when I interviewed for the NSA (through campus recruiting). Never completed the interview process as private sector offered a job for higher pay. I'm sure they still have my prints on file.

He was prior military. You give up your prints when you enter the military.
