This is my last attempt to post the story. Forgive me if the post is oddly formatted as I'm trying to remove words that might be triggering the GLP "words and such that shall not be posted" list.

"Man arrested after allegedly threatening mass casualty incident in Oklahoma City"

"suspicious person taking pictures of the Oklahoma City National Memorial"

snip

"miremad Nayebyazdi left a recorded message for his sister"

“Nayebyazdi told his sister hundreds are going to die in Oklahoma City, something very large is going to happen, it will be on the news and don’t tell mom and dad until after it is seen on the news,”

Less than 50 I'll add the link in the post below in case that is what's keeping the thread from posting.

Okay, let's try this one:

edited to add from above link:

A search of FBI documents didn't find anything derogatory on Nayebyazdi, but Oklahoma City Police records indicated arrests on suspicion of possession of controlled dangerous substances, driving under the influence, public intoxication and had been taken into custody in 2014 for a mental health evaluation.

Two days later, the investigator learned of a call that came in to Oklahoma City Police from somebody in California, who said that Nayebyazdi had left a message for his sister in Iran. Nayebyazdi allegedly told his sister that "hundreds are going to die in Oklahoma City. Something very large is going to happen. It will be on the news, and don't tell Mom and Dad until after it is seen on the news."

During that arrest, according to the affidavit, Nayebyazdi admitted to police that he had told his sister that hundreds would die in Oklahoma City and that "something big was going to happen." Police then asked him specifically if he had planted any bombs at the National Memorial, and Nayebyazdi denied it.

Strange, I found his linked in profile... it is definitely him yet the pic looks like someone else. The work history and education is a match, the pic is not.

The more that I look into this the more that I think this guy is not so much a typical terrorist but someone that is disturbed and in need of intervention.

"Nayebyazdi had several other arrests under his belt, including possession of a controlled dangerous substance, driving under the influence, and public intoxication. He also had reportedly been taken into protective custody during a 2014 incident for a mental health evaluation"

snip

"Nayebyazdi was adamant that he did not want to hurt people, and had not placed any explosives anywhere.

However, he admitted to having “problems,” according to KOCO. Nayebyazdi also admitted to having been diagnosed with mental issues and had been prescribed medication, but he hadn’t been taking it."
