Israel stopped jinad suspect's family in '07
North Carolina man Daniel Boyd and two of his sons were charged in a North Carolina indictment with leading a group planning violent jihad abroad. Israel reportedly denied entry to Boyd and two sons in 2007, detaining them for two days before returning them home. The U.S. indictment says the group traveled to Israel in July 2007 to meet other defendants but returned, claiming pilgrimages and denying nefarious aims. Sabrina Boyd urged caution and justice for her husband and sons.
