[efoods]Men arrested last week on suspicion of plotting a “violent jihad” overseas had weapons, thousands of rounds of ammunition and $13,000 cash in their home, an FBI agent testified in court Tuesday.
Also found at the home of Daniel Patrick Boyd and his sons were gas masks and a book that FBI special agent Michael Sutton called “essentially our playbook to how we respond to acts of terrorism.”
The seven men arrested last week should not be released on bail, he said.
“I think all of them are a risk of flight, your honor,” Sutton testified, noting allegations that all the defendants had traveled overseas.
All face charges of supporting terrorism and conspiracy to commit murder abroad. Authorities are seeking an eighth suspect in the case.
