I feel so bad for the victims and their families over what turns out to be a crime manufactured by the government. So many lives turned upside down. They aught to be compensated.
Bet the DEA is pissed at this! Entrapment is their middle name. Entrapment is the lowest form of enforcement. Calling it a "sting" is casting pearls before swine.
Dea entrapment has created an industry of "consultants" who charge drug arrestees 70-100 thousand dollars, to set up another drug sting on their behalf, and get someone else arrested. Then the Dea allows a 50 % discount on the first person's sentence for "cooperating".
It’s about time! I remember watching a documentary on this years ago and thinking.. how can this be legal? The harm and damage done to their lives cannot be undone and at minimum they should be monetarily compensated for this injustice
Entrapment is when someone else provides the methods and means to someone else who otherwise would not have the resources or knowledge to do the thing that is illegal. The FBI created this crime and manufactured the criminals.
just like world trade center first bombing, fbi made the bomb, when asked by the fbi bomb maker, "shouldn't we make this a fake bomb?" he was told ''No make it a live bomb". fbi is a criminal organization. plain and simple.
The FBI are as bad as *The Pentagon!* Always so full of such sleazy unscrupulous trickery and manipulation. 😣 Just so fuckin' *EVIL!!!* All the Reich-Wing in this country does is CREATE injustice by spreading nothing but chaos and mayhem. *GROSS!!!* 😡

Released in 90 days? Why the delay? Surely this is mistrial up to the date the judge orders their release, after that they are being detained unlawfully.
U have to remember how corrupt this system is, this is the same judicial system that will have all the DNA proof and evidence of corrupt cops/investigations and still make innocent victims jailed for decades stand up and admit guilt in order to be released....even though they have been clearly proved innocent. Remember the white kids in the south they accused of Satanism etc and they still made all of them plead guilty and one was willing to stay because he wouldn't do it, but they would hold the other 2 if he did so he folded. The govt refuses to be wrong even when it clearly admits it is. Nasty work.
A big thank you DM and to those brave, good and decent advocates fighting for this tragic case. America is a better place because of you, if only there were more of you around.
These people in charge to incarcerate should be put in prison for the rest of their lives. If not we the people should make sure they are delt with in my opinion
We need a panel of rotating jury like people who are able to view family & criminal court judges in order to make policy changes. No oversight committee? Ridiculous.
So... When do we get to hear the names, the backgrounds, the arrest and punishment of ALL the criminals that hatched and perpetrated this grotesque act? That is all I am interested in hearing about now!!!
will never happen because it's too much common sense 😂 which unfortunately the majority of Americans lack. what you're sayin makes perfect sense to me though
My bad, this was the wrong video I'm commenting on. But we do need accountability for the perpetrators of this, at the very least, they should not hold the power and responsibilities they've misused.
I am relieved to hear about the release of these men. I saw report DN aired and every time I hear something about Newburgh I thought about them. This was a tragedy, just ruined these men and their families lives!
Great bravery and reporting. I’m glad that these gentlemen were freed. This was a true miscarriage of justice. Those resources could have been used to fight terrorism rather than entrapping destitute people.
While it's nice to see these men being "compassionately" released, wtf is with the ruling judge's comments about them at 00:57!? Totally condescending! And, as it turns out she was the "hapless" one who ruled on the original case and got them locked up for no reason for years. She should be disbarred at the very least.
Well they did involve themselves in a violent plot for money, whether or not they actually intended to commit the crime or aligned themselves with jihad. The point of the story is not to make heroes out of these men, but to expose the government tyranny and corruption that manufactured the war on terror.
@@jzilla1234 point well taken, but we know the power a judge has in the courtroom. Perhaps she was fair, but those recent comments are not indicative of that.
Thank you Democracy Now for reporting on important cases that lame-stream media won’t. The nefariousness of these government agencies is beyond wicked,
Mainstream media needs to do their job of reporting the news. I never saw this on TV. I am glad they got justice, thanks for the loving and brave aunt to go against the wrongdoing of the law.
I remember watching a documentary about this case on HBO and thinking this was a clear cut example of government entrapment. I’m happy that this case is being highlighted and it needs to be spoken about. There are too many cases of government entrapment and it shows to what levels that the government Will stoop to in order to get a garner a conviction.
Hard to deny that, when you fully organize a crime, and then find some men to enact it, the organizers are the main criminals! (except they cannot be accused since the final act was a spoof and they are FBI, yet I feel they should be prosecuted for something nonetheless) We had similar shocking cases in Canada's history, where infiltrators were revealed to have perpetrated the crimes or organized them!
It's called conspiracy to defraud the people and commit terrorist acts on US soil which should be treated as treason. We need to root out and dissolve all agencies that seek to harm the nation: especially those who do it for political and profit motives.
yeah the grethen whitmer case had more fbi agents then 'kidnappers' involved. but the msm still pushed the 'right-wing' conspirisy trope. still do to this day. but if you show a propensity to do the crime. it is not consider entrapment under the law. they should have driven the car with the 'bomb' into a lake and run off with the money. then they would of had a defense. this is not a new tactic for the fbi. read the book: 'fbi terror factory'.
Same MO all right: the US against THEM game. If you know cops, they look at the world in very very simple ways. You're not one of them? Then you're the outsider, the enemy, the target.
And the FBI will do this over & over again. This should be a 200 million dollar suit for each victim. Those FBI agents should be arrested and sent to the same time if not more. Along with a lost of their pensions & all property.
I worked with disabled people for over fifty years, and my experiences taught me that disability wasn’t always a physical impairment or mental condition with a label that disabled a person. I came to believe that some people who cannot be diagnosed other than having their wires crossed or are “bent” are inherently unreliable. There are practical indicators for these people. Take 100 people who apply for a job. Look at the bottom two in that group. These two people are never selected for any job, regardless of the applicant pool or job requirements. They don’t make it to work on time, can’t handle the simplest instructions and cannot function in any organized setting; in the Reich, they were the Untermensch. I believe you’re making the mistake of treating them as if they stepped out of a James Bond film like trained assassins. They are not assassins; they are screw-ups. The real assassins are not the people at the bottom. They’re the people at the top, stirring the pot; they are the actual terrorists and the ones begging for and deserving justice.
@@michah321 Whether you think ADD/ADHD is a gift or a curse, you’re right. To my way of thinking, Attention Deficit is brought on by environmental factors, like parents using the TV as a babysitter, poor diet, and lack of exercise. Treat it with stimulants, and you can turn a workaholic into a more efficient workaholic. Most ADHDers are functional people, different, maybe, but they can deal with their (mis)perceived inadequacies with lifestyle changes, not allopathic medication. The people I’m talking about appear bent. Their Global Assessment of Function is below fifty, the belief system is off-kilter and thought process is chaos. They leave you with the impression that they are unfixable. With ADD, there’s always hope.
The idea was to describe a profoundly dysfunctional person who carried no medical or psychiatric diagnosis, and “Untermensch” was the only word that came close to fitting the description. The word is unique to the Nazis, and referring to the Reich was only intended to orient readers to the gist if they had never heard the word or were unfamiliar with the concept. I didn’t intend any subliminal implication or have any purpose beyond fluency. Sorry about that.. @@YouAreStillNotablaze
This is so sick, these men spent time in prison for something they have not done, may God give them strength as they come out to face this wicked word, who to trust in this life, lots of love to these brothers.
Every government entity that was involved with this corruption should be given these same judgments and imprisonment to show that government corruption doesn't isn't allowed ever!
This shouldn't be a surprise. This is why people no longer has any Faith in the Judicial system. I hope these guys learn something from this experience and get their lives together. Wake Up! They would have locked you guys up for life & thrown away the key.
The FBI employees who did this injustice should be tried and put in prison. Then justice would be served. When will the media show the FBI employees' faces to the public that committed this crime? And you wonder why some people don't trust the judicial system in the USA/ This is a good example.
I’m nit familiar with this case so I’m just trying to figure out why only 3/4 let out and RIP to aunt Alicia I’m glad they got released she really fought for them. It’s sad how they could send innocent people to prison.
The 4th guy was the ringleader of the four. The informant who orchestrated this farce recruited him at a mosque and then he recruited the other three. He knew that one was mentally disabled and still was willing to feed him to the wolves. He was under the impression that after the job was done, he'd get $250,000 and was on tape with the informant saying he didn't care about the others getting paid, he was ready to sell them out. He should still be freed, but he was the one on hundreds of hours of tape talking about blowing up whatever had to be blown up, doing whatever for money and jihad. He was entrapped but he recruited the others and said a lot of very incriminating things on all those hours of tape, that could be why, I'm not sure though. For the record I am just trying to objectively explain, I am not in any way justifying the entrapment.
The FBI needs to be dismantled. Those who did this to those four Black men, all of them need to go to prison or receive the death penalty! Just like that evil mongrel Hoover. That demon Hoover should be rotting continuously in Hell.
Releasing them isn't enough, the FBI agents should be held accountable for falsifying an arrest. They took 12 years away from those guys and one is not released.

U have to remember how corrupt this system is, this is the same judicial system that will have all the DNA proof and evidence of corrupt cops/investigations and still make innocent victims jailed for decades stand up and admit guilt in order to be released....even though they have been clearly proved innocent.
Remember the white kids in the south they accused of Satanism etc and they still made all of them plead guilty and one was willing to stay because he wouldn't do it, but they would hold the other 2 if he did so he folded. The govt refuses to be wrong even when it clearly admits it is. Nasty work.
The damage is done. Those that wanted them in just needed the damage done.
Not a mistrial, just compassionate release.
WHY HAVE WE NOT HEARD ABOUT THIS BEFORE TODAY?
What a sad state of affairs!! Shame on those who orchestrated these black men’s demise
A big thank you DM and to those brave, good and decent advocates fighting for this tragic case. America is a better place because of you, if only there were more of you around.
Yes 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
These people in charge to incarcerate should be put in prison for the rest of their lives. If not we the people should make sure they are delt with in my opinion
Thank you Ms. Goodman and Democracy Now for your work and commentary.
That is unacceptable FBI unprofessionalism. Ineptitude at it's height. Job security?!
so is it possible they had agents in the crowd on jan 6th?
Ineptitude? Is that what you qualify this as?
@@michaelmalzahn-tx2ziwell find out in 10-20 years🙄
I have thought of these young men over the years. So happy for them 🙏🏾
Our government....INCREDIBLE!!!!!! Wow
We need a panel of rotating jury like people who are able to view family & criminal court judges in order to make policy changes. No oversight committee? Ridiculous.
So...
When do we get to hear the names, the backgrounds, the arrest and punishment of ALL the criminals that hatched and perpetrated this grotesque act?
That is all I am interested in hearing about now!!!
That will Never happen because they have the complexion for protection. Which is F-k upped.
will never happen because it's too much common sense 😂
which unfortunately the majority of Americans lack.
what you're sayin makes perfect sense to me though
Why would it matter?
My bad, this was the wrong video I'm commenting on.
But we do need accountability for the perpetrators of this, at the very least, they should not hold the power and responsibilities they've misused.
Oh my God this country is in such a bad state. The FBI, the government and the police? The judge probably afraid of getting found out.
I am relieved to hear about the release of these men. I saw report DN aired and every time I hear something about Newburgh I thought about them. This was a tragedy, just ruined these men and their families lives!
They must be held accountable , jail them for 25 years 🥴🥴😔😔
Rest in POWER QUEEN ❤️🖤💚✨️👑 YOU ARE WEARING YOUR HIGH CROWN DID YOUR WORK WELL! THOSE YOUNG MEN OWE YOU THEIR FREEDOM!
Great bravery and reporting. I’m glad that these gentlemen were freed. This was a true miscarriage of justice. Those resources could have been used to fight terrorism rather than entrapping destitute people.
While it's nice to see these men being "compassionately" released, wtf is with the ruling judge's comments about them at 00:57!? Totally condescending! And, as it turns out she was the "hapless" one who ruled on the original case and got them locked up for no reason for years. She should be disbarred at the very least.
But, that just means the FBI tricked the Judge too.
I think the jury found them guilty and she had to give them the mandatory minimum of 25 years.
Well they did involve themselves in a violent plot for money, whether or not they actually intended to commit the crime or aligned themselves with jihad. The point of the story is not to make heroes out of these men, but to expose the government tyranny and corruption that manufactured the war on terror.
@@jzilla1234 point well taken, but we know the power a judge has in the courtroom. Perhaps she was fair, but those recent comments are not indicative of that.
She was biased & blinded naturally.
The Judge is an Angel for doing this! 🙏
No she devil
Hold the FBI agents involved accountable and sentence them to 25 years in prison.
Thank you Democracy Now for reporting on important cases that lame-stream media won’t. The nefariousness of these government agencies is beyond wicked,
I am so sorry for the Loss of his Aunt. Rest in Paradise ❤❤❤
Mainstream media needs to do their job of reporting the news. I never saw this on TV. I am glad they got justice, thanks for the loving and brave aunt to go against the wrongdoing of the law.
Mainstream media are fake news and propaganda pushers.
Thank God, for justice for these three men!
Thank God, for revealing truth about this case! 😊
This is evil. Yet real criminals are left to roam the streets 😮
Why she waited so long to reverse this. So much corruption in this world, don’t folks believe in karma? It’s Real 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
A rare glimpse of justice.
This is America!
What got you sleeping on?
Who got you sleeping on?
This is America!
Yes, this is truly Amerikkka😢
The FBI is beyond fixing at this point.
I remember watching a documentary about this case on HBO and thinking this was a clear cut example of government entrapment. I’m happy that this case is being highlighted and it needs to be spoken about. There are too many cases of government entrapment and it shows to what levels that the government Will stoop to in order to get a garner a conviction.
Every event like this makes another blow to the root of democracy.
Amen they are doing that all over America
What an utter waste of time, money and resources...... 🤬
...yep, the fbi sure is.
@@jguyfletch2187 its as though the american taxpayers have it to burn..
as checks keep getting exposited into the Ukrainian laundromat.
Penurious? What a delightful sounding word. It is a polite way of saying someone is broke, poor, and poverty stricken.
How can we ever trust this government?
Thank you for all that you do and giving my community a voice
Jan 6 protestors next
Hard to deny that, when you fully organize a crime, and then find some men to enact it, the organizers are the main criminals! (except they cannot be accused since the final act was a spoof and they are FBI, yet I feel they should be prosecuted for something nonetheless) We had similar shocking cases in Canada's history, where infiltrators were revealed to have perpetrated the crimes or organized them!
It's called conspiracy to defraud the people and commit terrorist acts on US soil which should be treated as treason. We need to root out and dissolve all agencies that seek to harm the nation: especially those who do it for political and profit motives.
RICO !
yeah the grethen whitmer case had more fbi agents then 'kidnappers' involved. but the msm still pushed the 'right-wing' conspirisy trope. still do to this day.
but if you show a propensity to do the crime. it is not consider entrapment under the law. they should have driven the car with the 'bomb' into a lake and run off with the money. then they would of had a defense.
this is not a new tactic for the fbi. read the book: 'fbi terror factory'.
Same MO all right: the US against THEM game. If you know cops, they look at the world in very very simple ways. You're not one of them? Then you're the outsider, the enemy, the target.
The individual agents on the case need to be held responsible. Just doing what you're told is not a defense.
And the FBI will do this over & over again.
This should be a 200 million dollar suit for each victim.
Those FBI agents should be arrested and sent to the same time if not more. Along with a lost of their pensions & all property.
Lock the those guys from the FBI up .😢😢😢😢
I worked with disabled people for over fifty years, and my experiences taught me that disability wasn’t always a physical impairment or mental condition with a label that disabled a person. I came to believe that some people who cannot be diagnosed other than having their wires crossed or are “bent” are inherently unreliable. There are practical indicators for these people.
Take 100 people who apply for a job. Look at the bottom two in that group. These two people are never selected for any job, regardless of the applicant pool or job requirements. They don’t make it to work on time, can’t handle the simplest instructions and cannot function in any organized setting; in the Reich, they were the Untermensch.
I believe you’re making the mistake of treating them as if they stepped out of a James Bond film like trained assassins. They are not assassins; they are screw-ups. The real assassins are not the people at the bottom. They’re the people at the top, stirring the pot; they are the actual terrorists and the ones begging for and deserving justice.
Very well said.
You're describing people with real life ADHD. Not the people who act like ADHD is some kind of gift or people being spoiled.
@@michah321 Whether you think ADD/ADHD is a gift or a curse, you’re right. To my way of thinking, Attention Deficit is brought on by environmental factors, like parents using the TV as a babysitter, poor diet, and lack of exercise. Treat it with stimulants, and you can turn a workaholic into a more efficient workaholic. Most ADHDers are functional people, different, maybe, but they can deal with their (mis)perceived inadequacies with lifestyle changes, not allopathic medication. The people I’m talking about appear bent. Their Global Assessment of Function is below fifty, the belief system is off-kilter and thought process is chaos. They leave you with the impression that they are unfixable. With ADD, there’s always hope.
Don't know why you'd need to reference the Reich, unless I'm missing something.
The idea was to describe a profoundly dysfunctional person who carried no medical or psychiatric diagnosis, and “Untermensch” was the only word that came close to fitting the description. The word is unique to the Nazis, and referring to the Reich was only intended to orient readers to the gist if they had never heard the word or were unfamiliar with the concept. I didn’t intend any subliminal implication or have any purpose beyond fluency. Sorry about that.. @@YouAreStillNotablaze
The government should take actions against these employees who set up special practices that landed so many falsely incarcerated.
This is so sick, these men spent time in prison for something they have not done, may God give them strength as they come out to face this wicked word, who to trust in this life, lots of love to these brothers.
Unfortunately this happens at a very high rate! That is why the innocence project exist.
Lord we need you in America🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾NOW!!!!
Every government entity that was involved with this corruption should be given these same judgments and imprisonment to show that government corruption doesn't isn't allowed ever!
Chris Morris's 2019 film, The Day Shall Come was all about this. Both he and Armando Iannucci talked a lot about whatthe FBI was doing.
I find it criminal that they have to back to jail and wait for their release.
MY GOD…ITS ABOUT TIME! Everyone from NEWBURGH NY…ALREADY KNEW THIS!
I wonder how many more plots that the public will never know about.
What chance do people have with a government like this holy cow man?
I am outraged and embarrassed of our Government!!!!
Wow
Bless those guys and their families ❤
This shouldn't be a surprise. This is why people no longer has any Faith in the Judicial system.
I hope these guys learn something from this experience and get their lives together. Wake Up! They would have locked you guys up for life & thrown away the key.
Prison for all involved in this brutal scheme!
How come they don't talk about this in Congress and the Senate !
The Aunt saw it as entrapment but nobody else could see. Amazing. Qualified immunity should be taken away when someone lies to get a conviction.
Scapegoating
Someone needed their case quota, so they hired people who needed money?
The FBI employees who did this injustice should be tried and put in prison. Then justice would be served. When will the media show the FBI employees' faces to the public that committed this crime? And you wonder why some people don't trust the judicial system in the USA/ This is a good example.
I’m nit familiar with this case so I’m just trying to figure out why only 3/4 let out and RIP to aunt Alicia I’m glad they got released she really fought for them. It’s sad how they could send innocent people to prison.
I'm trying to figure out the same thing
The 4th is about to finish his time.
@Yasser-The-Mummy thanks, but why didn't he get out too 😕
The 4th guy was the ringleader of the four. The informant who orchestrated this farce recruited him at a mosque and then he recruited the other three. He knew that one was mentally disabled and still was willing to feed him to the wolves. He was under the impression that after the job was done, he'd get $250,000 and was on tape with the informant saying he didn't care about the others getting paid, he was ready to sell them out.
He should still be freed, but he was the one on hundreds of hours of tape talking about blowing up whatever had to be blown up, doing whatever for money and jihad. He was entrapped but he recruited the others and said a lot of very incriminating things on all those hours of tape, that could be why, I'm not sure though.
For the record I am just trying to objectively explain, I am not in any way justifying the entrapment.
Just as JFK said about the CIA must also apply to the FBI: “splinter the C.I.A. in a thousand pieces and scatter it to the winds.”
The FBI needs to be dismantled. Those who did this to those four Black men, all of them need to go to prison or receive the death penalty! Just like that evil mongrel Hoover. That demon Hoover should be rotting continuously in Hell.
The crazy thing is that nobody goes to prison for doing this,they don't even lose their jobs.
Democracy for y,all here it is.😢😢😮😮😅
Shameful 😮
They did the same thing in the "Whitmer Kidnapping" plot and J6. S.O.P. for the F.B.I.
