Washington County Prosecutor James Schneider said yesterday that he didn't have enough evidence to present the felony terrorism charges to a grand jury. He said in a news release that he needs more information to prove the charges beyond a reasonable doubt.
"At this time we didn't see a link that we could prove," Schneider said in a phone interview, adding he was referring to both terrorism in general and any specific group.
They are still being charged with a misdemeanor for lying to police. I'm not sure if that involves a fine for what. It's a double edged sword of sorts, you arrest two suspicious men who begin their relationship with police by lying. Then after a few days let them go and now you have angered the already angry muslim community in America. Typical catch twenty two.

Actually, I was thinking the same thing.
Posted by: mrs. muddy at August 15, 2006 12:17 PMActually, no the CIA isn't. But your limited understanding of intelligence wouldn't help you to figure out why.
Posted by: skywalker at August 15, 2006 01:11 PMYes, and your trust of the government is noble indeed.
If you think these people arnt being secretely monitored by some agency, well then I dont know what to say.
Maybe You dont understand how things Really work.

Well, I would think at least the FBI would (which is who I ment to say earlier - got them mixed up for some reason). But since *my* intelligence is in good shape....maybe you could explain this stuff to me.:-)

Posted by: mrs. muddy at August 15, 2006 02:12 PMIt may all be a game of cat and mouse now that I think about it. Let them lead the law to their source so they can catch the bigger fish.
Posted by: muddy at August 15, 2006 03:09 PMI didn't say they weren't being monitored by some agency. And for at least some period of time, I hope they are to verify that they story pans outs.
And yes, it would be the FBI. The FBI does domestic intelligence.

Yes, I realize that considering it stands for:
Ferderal
Bureau of
Investigation
I had just typed my response in too quick the other day in a tired state and wasn't functioning on all cylinders there for a second.
