Somalians, man.
What in the hell are these monkeys doing in our country?
Mohamed Amiin Ali Roble, the young I-35 bridge collapse survivor thought to have used thousands of dollars in settlement money to travel to Syria and join ISIL, has become the 11th Twin Cities man charged with providing support to the terror group.
Roble was 10 years old when he became one of 145 people injured in the August 2007 bridge collapse. He collected $91,654 in settlement money on his 18th birthday. According to federal charges filed Wednesday, those funds financed his 2014 travel to join the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant and helped pay for cars and weddings for fellow jihadists in Syria.
Federal authorities believe that Roble, who previously lived in south Minneapolis, is still alive in Syria.
The charges are part of an ongoing FBI investigation into terrorism recruitment in the Twin Cities Somali-American community. Nine other young Twin Cities men await sentencing after being convicted on charges related to their own attempts to join ISIL abroad.
Until Wednesday, Abdi Nur, who is Roble’s uncle, was the only man in the case charged in absentia after making it to Syria. According to testimony at the May trial of three co-defendants, Nur is believed to have since been killed while fighting for ISIL, although his death has not been publicly confirmed.
Roble, 20, is charged in the complaint with conspiracy to provide material support to ISIL, for travel preparation in August 2014, and with providing material support to the organization when he allegedly crossed into Syria in December 2014.
Passing out money like ‘candy’
Roble’s name first surfaced during the weekslong federal trial of Abdirahman Daud, Mohamed Farah and Guled Omar — the only three co-defendants to go to trial.
According to a signed affidavit by FBI special agent Daniel Higgins, Roble attended meetings with other co-conspirators where they discussed joining ISIL in Syria. Abdirahman Bashiir, a co-conspirator turned FBI informant, later told investigators that he and others from the group knew Roble was awaiting the settlement money, which came from three lawsuits filed by his parents after the bridge collapse.
Roble and other siblings on the bus earned structured settlement annuities from the state of Minnesota, and from both a contractor and consulting engineering firm that worked on the bridge.
After he received his money in August 2014, Roble opened two bank accounts and successfully applied for a passport that he said would be used to travel to China for study.
Roble’s family could not be reached for comment Wednesday.
