\nA man arrested in a raid on a squalid compound in New Mexico was training children living there to carry out school shootings, prosecutors said on Thursday.<\/p>\n
Siraj Ibn Wahhaj, 40, was arrested along with four other people on Friday at the desert compound in Amalia, New Mexico, and has been charged with 11 counts of child abuse.<\/p>\n
Eleven children aged one to 15 were found living on the compound in filthy conditions, prosecutors said, and Wahhaj is under investigation for the death of a 12th child\u2014possibly his son\u2014whose body was discovered on the property.<\/p>\n
\u201cTrip hazards, woods with nails sticking up, broken glass, bottles, and open trenches littered the property,\u201d prosecutors said Wednesday in a court filing requesting that Wahhaj be held in custody.<\/p>\n
\u201cTrash scattered around the property, no clean water, no electricity, no indoor plumbing and the children were clothed in rags,\u201d the filing said, adding that loaded firearms were also found at the compound.<\/p>\n
Prosecutors quoted the foster parent of one of the children as claiming that Wahhaj \u201chad trained the child in the use of an assault rifle in preparation for future school shootings.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201c(Wahhaj) poses a great danger to the children found on the property as well as a threat to the community as a whole due to the presence of firearms and his intent to use these firearms in a violent and illegal manner,\u201d the court filing said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
