Mayfield, 37, attended high school in Buhler and Halstead before going to Hutchinson Community College on a track scholarship, his mother said.

After serving in the Army, he studied law at Washburn University in Topeka and finished his degree in Oregon, where he now has his own small office and practices family law, she said.

AvNell Mayfield said FBI agents came to her home and asked questions about her son Thursday.

Brandon Mayfield has not left the country since he took a trip 10 years ago to visit his wife's family, his mother said. She thinks her son, who she said is a soft-spoken family man, is being treated unfairly because he is Muslim.

"He is not a militant person. He is very law-abiding, very quiet. He is a devout Muslim and goes to mosque," she said.

"This is an outrage."

AvNell Mayfield is pretty dumb.

Her son most likely has half a dozen other identities, under which he traveled to Spain, and perhaps other countries where terrorist attacks have occurred.

Mayfield, 37, attended high school in Buhler and Halstead before going to Hutchinson Community College on a track scholarship, his mother said.

In other quotes from his family members, it was reported that Mayfield joined the Army directly out of high school because he felt it was the right thing to do -- no mention of attending college first on a track scholarship.

AvNell Mayfield said that she spoke to her daughter-in-law, Mona Mayfield, by phone Thursday. She was "hysterical" and said that people were searching their home and confiscating credit cards and many boxes of possessions.

His fingerprints were found on a shopping bag containing detonators. Find the purchase made by credit card at the store where this shopping bag is from, and you have another clue.
