Defendents plot murder from jail cell
Tuesday, August 23rd, 2005 • Filed under Uncategorized
Nobody ever accused criminals of being too smart, but hatching a murder plot while you’re sitting in jail doesn’t help your case.
Co-defendants in a drug case emptied toilet bowls in their Federal Detention Center cells and yelled to each other through the drainpipes about killing witnesses who might testify against them, prosecutors said.
What Dawud Bey and those he communicated with didn’t know was that the FBI was also listening, via wiretaps in and around their cells, Assistant U.S. Attorney Mark J. Ehlers said Thursday.
Now they face charges of threatening government witnesses on top of everything else.
