OK, maybe this isn't about folks photographing, but...
On Friday, Sean Hannity talked to an old radio colleague from Nashville about the following
incident. Hannity's old friend said that the TV stations were NOT reporting this story.
Even though it is pretty strange for someone to be denied bail for something like
trying to illegally obtain a drivers license.
But looks like the story has now surface nationally.
Six Charged in Tenn. License Plot
Thu Feb 7,11:03 AM ET Yahoo/AP
MEMPHIS, Tenn. - A driver's license examiner and five others, including three alleged
illegal aliens, were charged in a plot to buy phony Tennessee licenses for $1,000 apiece.
According to an FBI complaint filed Wednesday, illegal aliens Mohammed Fares,
Mostafa Said Abou-Shahin and Abdelmuhsen Mahmid Hammad drove from New York
to obtain licenses.
The complaint said the trio were met outside a testing center Tuesday by Sakhera Hammad
and Khaled Odtllah, alleged middlemen who filled out the necessary paperwork,
charging them each $1,000. Testing center examiner Katherine Smith then issued
the licenses under the names of Fares and two others, the complaint said.
The complaint did not identify the men's nationalities.
Federal officials stepped up their investigation of phony identification after the
Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. Federal prosecutor Tim DiScenza declined to say if
the defendants had any ties to terrorist groups.
The five men were being held without bail. Smith was released on her own recognizance.
Hmmm...five guys can't get bail, their (apparent) American co-conspirator gets
to walk home without needing to even post bail.

I got no article to refer you to, but it is rumored that two cars with Middle Easterners were observed drivng around LA area's oil refineries filming. 911 was called and a one car was pulled over by sheriff deputies out of the Carson office. The result was several people being taken by the Fed's.
