Muslim Man Goes To Ft. Hood, Threatens Beheadings, Signals Intent To Free Major Hasan, Is Released By Authorities

All that, and the San Antonio News titles the article, "Would-be Hasan Visitor Is Freed".

From SAN:

An Iraqi doctor encouraged security officers at Brooke Army Medical Center to shoot him earlier this month after telling others that he planned to free accused Fort Hood shooter Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, a federal agent testified Monday.

FBI counterterrorism and military intelligence operatives took a hard look at Senan Kahtan Abrahem after he went to Fort Sam Houston on Jan. 6 and approached an information booth at BAMC about seeing Hasan, according to testimony at a bail hearing Monday for Abrahem.

Abrahem, an immigrant living in San Antonio, was indicted last week on a federal charge of making a false statement — he allegedly claimed he was Hasan's lawyer so he could get access to Hasan.

U.S. Magistrate Judge John Primomo released Abrahem on unsecured bond after hearing that Abrahem, who is bipolar, has resumed taking medication, does not appear to be a flight risk and did not harm anyone.

What could go wrong?
