Dallas Criminal Defense Attorney Barry Sorrels Analyzes the Case of Naser Jason Abdo on News 8

Dallas Criminal Defense Lawyer Barry Sorrels tells News 8 that Naser Jason Abdo, a soldier arrested in a bombing plot, only made things worse for himself in his recent courtroom appearance in Waco. News 8 reports that in court on July 29, Adbo allegedly yelled out the name of an Iraqi girl who was raped and murdered in 2006, and the name of Major Abdul Nidal Hasan, whose rampage killed and wounded numerous soldiers November 2009 at Fort Hood. "All of that would be admissible," said Sorrels, who added that it appears that Abdo is "doing everything he can to make his situation worse." Court documents allege that Abdo planned to detonate a bomb inside a restaurant that was popular with soldiers. As of July 29, Mr. Abdo had only been charged with possession of an unregistered destructive device, according to News 8. "Believe me, come Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday of next week, I wouldn't be surprised if they've added additional charges, once they have time to analyze everything," Sorrels said.
