United States of America v. Elton Simpson

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF ARIZONA

March 14, 2011

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
PLAINTIFF,
v.
ELTON SIMPSON,
DEFENDANT.

On January 13, 2010, a grand jury indicted Defendant Elton Simpson for knowingly and willfully making a materially false statement to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (”FBI”). The indictment also charged that the statement involved international and domestic terrorism. The indictment specified that on or about January 7, 2010, the Defendant falsely stated to special agents of the FBI that he had not discussed traveling to Somalia, when in fact he had discussed with others traveling to Somalia for the purpose of engaging in violent jihad. The Government is charging Mr. Simpson with making a false statement in violation of 18 U.S.C. §1001. The Government is also charging that the false statement involves international or domestic terrorism as defined under section 2331, so that he is eligible for a sentence enhancement pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §1001.

The Defendant waived his right to a trial by jury and elected instead to have a bench trial. Trial was held October 26 and 27, 2010 before this Court. At the close of trial the Court permitted the parties to provide any additional briefing on the issue of whether the 2 false statement involves international terrorism under 18 U.S.C. §1001. The Court issues the 3 following Order. 4 I. Findings of Fact 5 According to the testimony presented at trial, the Defendant Elton Simpson is an 6 American Muslim. In 2006, the FBI in Phoenix began a criminal investigation of Mr. 7 Simpson, because of his association with an individual whom the FBI believed was 8 attempting to set up a terrorist cell in Arizona. The FBI was investigating whether the 9 Defendant, and certain of his associates, might travel to foreign countries to engage in violent jihad. The investigation was part of the FBI’s mission to deter and disrupt terrorist acts involving American citizens as authorized by executive order.

As of 7:00 AM Elton was still laying on the pavement in a pool of his dried blood.

How long before his family gets $1,000,000 from Obama’s Justice dept for “civil rights” violations.

Don’t these idiot know Charlie Hebdo aint gonna work in Texas

He lied to the FBI?
That shouldn’t be a crime for a Muslim - it’s OK to lie to infidels.
