Goose Creek Suspect Made Bomb Tape
He even admitted to it, according to TampaBay.com:Earlier in the court hearing Friday, an assistant U.S attorney
outlined the evidence confiscated from the car driven by Megahed and another
suspended USF student -- describing a container and three pipes filled with a
low-grade explosive mixture.
The list also included a videotape that
instructs viewers on how to convert a toy electric car into a detonator.
Defendant Ahmed Mohamed has admitted making the tape, and in it he says he
intended the instruction "to save one who wants to be a martyr for another
battle,'' said federal prosecutor Jay Hoffer.
The FBI knew about this tape all the time and were telling us "Nothing terror-related here". Our government at work, folks.
Also in the car were:
- Three pieces of PVC piping that were filled with a mixture of potassium nitrate, Karo syrup and cat litter.
- An electric drill
- A box of .22 caliber bullets
- A five gallon container filled with gasoline
- 23 feet of safety fuse.
- A laptop computer
The Laptop had the bombmaking video.
