“Yusuf Acar, the acting chief security officer in the city’s technology office, was ordered held without bond pending a hearing Tuesday. Prosecutors said $70,000 in cash was found during a search of Acar’s Washington home and that he posed a serious flight risk.”

Gee, I wonder where he’d flee.

How do people with these names land technology security jobs in the U.S. government?

I want to know who hired Yusuf Acar!!
