Teen Accused in ISIS Plot Seeks Release | Detroit News

A 20-year-old from Dearborn, Ayob Nasser, is fighting to get out of jail while awaiting trial on charges of aiding ISIS — but his lawyers say the evidence is flimsy, with no explosives, targets, or operational plans. The government claims the plot targeted LGBTQ+ clubs and an amusement park, but Nasser’s team argues the alleged activity was just online chatter and a legally stored, unloaded firearm. This case follows a major FBI investigation that began with a tip and culminated in Halloween raids, leading to multiple arrests — including Nasser’s arrest a week later. Meanwhile, another suspect, Saed Ali Mirreh, has become the first to plead guilty, admitting contact with Dearborn residents planning to join ISIS. Complicating matters further, prosecutors are seeking to try two juveniles as adults — a rare move that could delay Nasser’s trial significantly.
