He co-founded the \u003ca href=\"https://projects.scpr.org/california-reporting-project/\">California Reporting Project\u003c/a> in 2019 to obtain and report on previously confidential police internal investigations.

And he continued to meet with the agent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Remarkably, the government paints its own operation in just the opposite light,\" the defense wrote. \"In the government's telling, the FBI was faced with what was a credible and imminent threat, but sent an agent to pose as an al Qaeda member who did not know the first thing about al Qaeda or ISIS.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The government argues that Alhaggagi eventually stopped meeting with the undercover agent and abandoned his plans because he'd started to suspect a case was being built against him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This narrative is simply false,\" the defense wrote. \"It was not because of a misstep by the UCE [undercover employee] that Mr. Alhaggagi never acted on the supposed plans.

They recovered additional video, allegedly taken by Alhaggagi in late June of 2016, weeks before he was identified by the FBI.

They describe the defendant as an immature joker who loved attention and seemed unable to notice when a prank went too far.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Amer Alhaggagi is not a terrorist,\" his defense attorney wrote. \"He is neither radicalized nor dangerous. Rather, as prominent radicalization expert Dr. Marc Sageman has found, the entire catalogue of his online output constituted the made-up imaginings of an immature prankster who felt trapped in a strict and traditional home. He believed none of what he said, was surprised when anyone took him seriously and, in fact, is something of a coward.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The prosecution argues that interpretation falls for one of Alhaggagi's many frauds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If not for the quick-thinking actions of the FBI and its undercover agent, it is no exaggeration whatsoever to say that this sentencing likely would have been about counting the bodies of victims, instead of counting the number of fake Twitter accounts and false IDs,\" the prosecution wrote. \"There is no doubt as far as the government is concerned that Alhaggagi was prepared to go 'live.' Why else did he do research on the dangers of strychnine? Why else was he looking online for fake passports? Why else did he obtain a bomb manual from [the Islamic State].

They recovered additional video, allegedly taken by Alhaggagi in late June of 2016, weeks before he was identified by the FBI.

They describe the defendant as an immature joker who loved attention and seemed unable to notice when a prank went too far.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Amer Alhaggagi is not a terrorist,\" his defense attorney wrote. \"He is neither radicalized nor dangerous. Rather, as prominent radicalization expert Dr. Marc Sageman has found, the entire catalogue of his online output constituted the made-up imaginings of an immature prankster who felt trapped in a strict and traditional home. He believed none of what he said, was surprised when anyone took him seriously and, in fact, is something of a coward.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The prosecution argues that interpretation falls for one of Alhaggagi's many frauds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If not for the quick-thinking actions of the FBI and its undercover agent, it is no exaggeration whatsoever to say that this sentencing likely would have been about counting the bodies of victims, instead of counting the number of fake Twitter accounts and false IDs,\" the prosecution wrote. \"There is no doubt as far as the government is concerned that Alhaggagi was prepared to go 'live.' Why else did he do research on the dangers of strychnine? Why else was he looking online for fake passports? Why else did he obtain a bomb manual from [the Islamic State].
