Pugh convicted
We talked about Tairod Nathan Webster Pugh about a year ago when the Air Force mechanic tried to join ISIS. CNN reports that he was convicted in the Eastern District of New York yesterday;
This conviction is the first time a jury has found an individual guilty for attempting to travel to Syria to join ISIS, according to Assistant Attorney General John P. Carlin.
“Tairod Nathan Webster Pugh was willing to become a martyr, using his U.S. military training as a weapon for ISIL. Instead, found guilty of his crimes, he is facing a lengthy incarceration,” said FBI Assistant Director-in-Charge Diego G. Rodriguez.
Yeah, I’m not sure how marketable his military training was to ISIS. They don’t seem to have a very large air force or much of a need for an avionics guy. I think they would have had some regrets for accepting him into their ranks. He would have had the ISIS folks standing around with their hands in their pockets and complaining about the chow within moments after his arrival.
Pugh won’t be sentenced until mid-September.

I see Pugh enjoying many, many sessions of anal dilation therapy, cockmeat sammiches with extra manmayo and tubesteak with generous helpings of nut butter.
Of course, all will be provided by people with the names of Bubba, Thor, Julio and Mr. Tiny in the federal poundhimintheass lockup.
I suspect he’ll be a celeb among the muzlims currently inhabiting that (and every other) prison in our country.
I hope he becomes Bubba & Thor’s number one cellblock bitch with flesh enemas every night .
ISIS has gotten quite a bit of weaponry from the Iraq and Syrian Army. The longer they are allowewd to exist the higher the chances are of then getting somer sort of air capability.
” He would have had the ISIS folks standing around with their hands in their pockets and complaining about the chow within moments after his arrival.”
Cheeky, Jonn, very cheeky…
Considering the previous story about the two O-6s who were just convicted for their crimes, I’ll be interested to see how much time he gets for this. Especially since this is a “new” type of conviction, according to the DA.
“Lengthy incarceration” is relative.
Looks like he was working in a Repair Station….that’s a 747 behind him. If he was performing D-Checks and other scheduled maintenance on Commercial or Cargo aircraft; as an Avionics tech, he could have potentially fucked with some of the Avionics, such as ILS, and caused planes to crash killing hundreds.
Just glad they caught him before any real damage could be done…though if I were an airline, I’d want to know if he worked on any of my planes that went through that facility.
