Terror suspect Warsame sentenced to 92 months (MN)
StarTribune ^ | 7/9/09 | James Walsh

Minneapolis terrorism suspect Mohammed Abdullah Warsame was sentenced today to seven and a half years for conspiring to aid Al-Qaida, with credit for the years he has already spent in prison.

In U.S. District Court in Minneapolis, Judge John Tunheim gave Warsame credit for his five-and-a-half years behind bars and gave him additional credit for "good time," because he has been kept in solitary confinement. That means he will probably be released and deported in about 10 months.

Warsame, 35, served one of the longest pretrial detentions for a terrorism-related case since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

He pleaded guilty in May to providing material support and resources to Al-Qaida. Four other charges were dropped, including providing material support to the terrorist organization and making false statements to the FBI.

We should take the take-no-prisoners route. Then, we could be certain to not hear from this cretin.
