New charges in New Mexico jihad compound case

Aug 25, 2018 6:22 pm By Robert Spencer

This case has almost completely been forgotten. If it had been a compound full of Christians planning school shootings, would it have dropped so completely from the headlines? What do you think?

“Two ‘extremist Muslim’ New Mexico compound suspects hit with new charges, authorities say,” by Elizabeth Zwirz, Fox News, August 24, 2018:

Authorities in New Mexico announced new charges Friday against two adults previously arrested at a compound linked to “extremist Muslims” regarding the death of a missing 3-year-old boy.

Siraj Ibn Wahhaj, the boy’s father, and Jany Leveille were charged with abuse of a child resulting in the death of a child and conspiracy to commit abuse of a child, Taos County Sheriff Jerry Hogrefe said in a Friday news release.

The new allegations come after health officials last week revealed a child’s remains that had been located at the compound were positively identified by the Office of the Medical Investigator as Abdul-Ghani Wahhaj, the defendant’s son.

The cause of death was not released.

“This has been a very involved and lengthy process, but it is the only lawful way to build a solid criminal case,” Hogrefe said. “We now know the child died on December 24, 2017 and was concealed at the compound, which was suspected early in the investigation.”

Leveille, who earlier this month was transferred to the custody of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), was returned Thursday to the custody of Taos County, “where she is still being held on Federal immigration charges, as well as state charges for eleven counts of child abuse,” authorities said.

Leveille was returned to the custody of Taos County on Thursday “where she is still being held on Federal immigration charges, as well as state charges for eleven counts of child abuse,” authorities said….

      Rob, that used to conjure up images of lovely Luminarias lining adobe houses in the winter twilight. Not so much with this…

      These muslims are so into abusing people and they love to pray on the most vulnerable, its beyond belief ., This is universal across all aspects of islam .

      the cops at all levels are not doing their jobs, the same is happening in Canada.

    One report of this earlier said that the woman kept a digital record of the little boy’s sufferings…his heart stopping over and over, not having his meds, and she even claimed he was stolen from her by his biological mother.
    She told the “father” that he should keep going….reading their unholy book for up to five hours at a time, while the child suffered…and she consulted their fake god and yelled that the child’s death was “impossible.’

    And it’s all according to islam and its evil commands.

    It’s hard to imagine the horrors these children suffered! It’s also hard to imagine this compound was
    built on private land and the authorities did nothing for such a long period of time!! They were living like
    animals with with no running water , toilets, or electricity. And where did all the tires come from?
    Where did these illegal Muslim criminals get money for guns and ammo? Where is the FBI!?
    It’s appalling the lack of law and order in the USA!!!

      Not only that–the owners of the land asked law enforcement for help several times.

        And, at least one of the trailers was stolen. So it is stolen property and children while squatting on stolen land.

      The FBI is busy trying to aid in the impeachment of the president. Law enforcement at the top has gone off the rails and can no longer be trusted to protect the American people.Is there one honest man in our FBI or Intelligence that can come forward and lead us or are they all compromised?

    CNN has another update on this story. The woman who was the “partner” of the kidnapper, wanted to attack a hospital in GA where she says she and her mother were mistreated.

    The account says she intended to speak the “truth” to the people there and if they didn’t listen to her, then she would signal the others to attack.
    Evidently, she and the sisters of the kidnapper joked a lot about dying for jihad.
    The group dug a tunnel to escape when the police moved in. And the property owner claims he was told that one of the people in the compound was on a “terrorist watch list.”
    There is a lot more to the story on CNN.

    There’s a disgusting puff piece on CNN (supposedly updated this morning) full of rainbow-and-unicorn descriptions of the counter cultural history of the area, with not a single word about the jihad aspirations of Wahhaj and his family, or the plot to blow up the hospital in Atlanta. The author is Emmanuelle Grinberg. Perhaps JW readers could send her a polite email explaining how these folks are different from the nice hippies living in abandoned school buses.

    Say NEVER TO ISLAM.

    Why do I have to pay for these criminals who hate infidels like me?

    All those legal fees, prison costs etc for people who kill their own babies. When will this stop?
