A defense attorney in Michigan is pushing back on the FBI’s allegations that his client and a group of young men arrested Friday were planning to carry out a violent attack over the Halloween weekend.
FBI Director Kash Patel announced the arrests of multiple people Friday who he said were plotting a “potential terrorist attack.” He said more details would be forthcoming.
Amir Makled, the lawyer for a Dearborn, Mich., man who was still detained Saturday, said he hasn’t gotten many details about the case, but he told The Associated Press that, after reviewing the matter, he doesn’t expect any charges to be filed. He said he concluded no terror attack was being planned.
“I don’t know where this hysteria and this fearmongering came from,” Makled said.
“If these young men were on forums that they should not have been on or things of that nature, then we’ll have to wait and see,” Makled added. “But I don’t believe that there’s anything illegal about any of the activity they were doing.”
Two people briefed on the matter said the investigation involved online chat room discussions with some people taken into custody. They spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.

I thought Kash Patel would bring change to the agency seems same old, same old at least in terms of set ups.
....a defense lawyer said.... any questions Surrender Monkeys?
Lawyers for the criminals will say ANYTHING to make the prosecution look bad. Please do not fall for that.
Dearborn. That’s a slam dunk.
He said/She said
OF COURSE the DEFENSE attorney says they didn’t do anything wrong. That’s his job.
DUH!
And the prisons are full of souls that swear they are innocent, honest, no really and truly. Trust me!
“My client had merely FOUND these drugs at the time of his arrest, and was on his way to the police station to turn them in at the time of his arrest, your honor.”
Like yeah, man...
Good tagline.
 He's been pretty disappointing.
Kash could have said ,”We had them under surveillance for months, after they killed and maimed 20 or 30 people. Just like they used to.
😂😂😂😂😂
 A defense lawyer would be talking out his butt if he was defending Hammie Boys - right up to the minute they cut his head off...
I can’t take her posts seriously.

“Why, just the other month, RandFan said something nice about Trump!”
that’s just as worn out as those people who declare that some of their best friends are “Jews” or “Blacks” or “Trumpistas” or “Mexicans” or “conservatives.”
You hate Trump. I get it. A lot of people do. Just man up or woman up and declare your hate.
Your passive aggressive stuff ... so 2016 gaslighting
