(Albuquerque Journal) A U.S. magistrate judge on Friday ordered a New Mexico man detained on federal charges alleging he attempted to recruit and train people to fight on behalf of ISIS, both in the United States and abroad.
An indictment handed up Tuesday by a federal grand jury alleges that Herman Leyvoune Wilson provided material support and resources to the foreign terrorist organization.
Other federal documents say he radicalized others, attempted to set up a training camp in Albuquerque for ISIS supporters and drove a confidential informant to Kirtland Air Force Base, describing it as a potential target.
In addition, Wilson, 45, also known as Bilal Mu’Min Abdullah, attempted to impede the investigation by shutting down an online platform that contained records of his and others’ activities, according to the indictment filed in U.S. District Court of New Mexico.
