• Theft
• Misdemeanors
  The magistrate, in a scathing detention order, denied Nacer bond and detained him as a flight risk and a possible threat to national security. This is a man that lives in the same small town as his parents, operates his own filling station, has a wife and two small children, and whose only conviction was a misdemeanor probation for assault that he lived out. Nacer immediately appealed the magistrate’s detention order. The district judge wrote an even more harsh opinion upholding the detention. In it he questioned how a small store-owner could afford to travel to the Middle East and cited the aliases and false birth dates and social security numbers that Nacer had allegedly used in the past. Apparently some law enforcement officer had written down his date of birth and social security number with one digit off or transposed; and as stated before, his “aliases” were his nickname “Victor” and his mother’s last name.
