outside the nation’s capital, graduating in 2007 from Edison High
School. Before leaving for the Middle east in 2015, he worked as a bus
driver for the elderly and disabled in the region’s Metro system.His
parents emigrated from the Middle East and he grew up as a Muslim, but
was not particularly religious. His parents, who attended Friday’s
hearing, declined to comment.

sentence, “but there is no question you did radicalize." (end of article)
