Ujaama headed to prison, may lose plea deal
By AMY ROLPH
P-I REPORTER
ARTICLE SNIPPET; “James Ujaama, the Seattle man convicted three years ago of aiding suspected Taliban terrorists, is heading back to prison after he was caught skipping the country while on parole.
Federal prosecutors also are considering rescinding the plea agreement they made with the 41-year-old man in exchange for information about possible terrorist activities.
Ujaama acknowledged to a federal judge in Seattle on Thursday that he used a fake Mexican passport to flee to Belize in December. U.S. District Judge Barbara Rothstein sentenced him to two years in jail, the maximum allowed by law.
Ujaama’s attorney, Peter Offenbecker, spoke for his client during most of the hearing, until Rothstein asked if the defendant had anything to say for himself.
“Yes, your honor,” Ujaama said softly. “I would just like to say I am very, very sorry.”
But neither Ujaama’s nor Offenbecker’s apologies softened the sentence handed down, and it has yet to be seen if they will keep the federal government from revoking the plea agreement Ujaama signed four years ago while on trial.
In April 2003, Ujaama signed an agreement stating he would cooperate with investigators and reveal information about terrorist activity as long as prosecutors dropped charges he provided training, facilities, computer services, safe houses and personnel to al-Qaida.”

“Ujaama returns to court, accused of violating parole”
By MIKE LEWIS
P-I REPORTER
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “A Seattle man convicted of supplying Taliban fighters with cash and computers returned to federal court Tuesday to face charges that he violated his parole by traveling overseas with a false Mexican passport.
James Ujaama denied the multiple federal counts that could land him back in prison for two years. Arrested in Belize one month ago, Ujaama had only four months left on his parole stemming from the 2003 conviction.
His attorney, Peter Offenbecher, said he hadn’t yet gathered all the information that led to his client’s arrest. “I’m investigating the facts to determine the appropriate course of action,” he said after the brief court appearance.
Federal prosecutors in the Western District Court charged Ujaama, 41, with four violations of his three-year parole agreement: making false statements to a federal officer; use of a Mexican passport under the assumed name of Jose Luis Ramirez Ramirez; failure to follow a probation officer’s order; and leaving the U.S. without permission from a federal court.”
