The Case Against Nada Prouty

Under pressure, Prouty agreed to waive the 10-year statute of limitations on immigration fraud and plead guilty to two felonies related to the sham marriage. She also pled guilty to one misdemeanor count of unauthorized use of an FBI computer, a charge she now denies.

"I've made that mistake when I was a 19-year-old teenager. And I shouldn't have made it. And I own up to it. But I did not look into FBI ACS system without authorization. I did not mismanage or mishandle any classified information," she told Pelley.

Asked why she pled guilty to that charge when she now says it wasn't true, Prouty said, "I had to make a decision. I could not see our limited financial resources disappear in front of our own eyes."

"From attorney's fees that amounted in the hundreds of thousands of dollars," she added.

But pleading guilty wouldn't be the end of it: prosecutors didn't have the evidence to make a terrorism case in court so they made one in the media.

In a November 2007 press release the prosecutors said, "It's hard to imagine a greater threat" than someone like Nada Prouty. They said that she had "exploit[ed] her access to sensitive counter-terrorism intelligence."

And, later, the Detroit office boasted it had uncovered "the only known case of an illegal alien infiltrating U.S. intelligence agencies with potential espionage implications," as if Prouty had plotted from the age of 19 to infiltrate the CIA. All the worse, there it was, a word never uttered in court -- "espionage."

Prouty was branded a traitor in the national news media.

"My family was destroyed. Neighbors wouldn't talk to us," Prouty recalled. "When my daughter would go out in the neighborhood, her friends would scatter away. They told her, 'We don't wanna talk to you 'cause your mommy is bad.'"

"One of the New York papers called you 'Jihad Jane,'" Pelley remarked.

"That's the Jane that went to Iraq and put her life on the line," Prouty said.

Before she was sentenced, the CIA launched its own investigation to find out if Prouty was a Hezbollah spy. Bob Grenier, the CIA's former head of counterterrorism, told Pelley what the agency found.

"There was a full investigation which included multiple polygraph examinations," he said. "She was completely exonerated."

Nada deserves nothing less then her citizenship returned, preferably by Pres. Obama, as well as pardon those ridiculous charges, with a public apology followed with serious efforts to restore her name and reputation, and compensate her for the income she has lost since she has not been able to work. I even have a good idea where to get the money! Prosecute the right criminals Straus and Chadwell, Throw them behind bars and close out their bank account like they did Nada's and just transfer the money to her! Including the rewards they defrauded the govt. for by prosecuting her and starting this, void of any truth, horror story they have conjured up to get rich and advance their careers at her expense!

All who support Nada and her Plight to regain her Citizenship, for starters, please take a few minutes to sign one of the following petitions, the are the same just different sites and it only takes about 30 seconds,

http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/nada-prouty-plight-for-justice
or
http://www.change.org/petitions/view/nadas_plight_for_justice

Then write the Department of Justice Office, or use there online form requesting they re investigate Nada's case and prosecute the real criminals that brought this tragedy down on Nada and her family.

Where did all the other posts go? Ok so this is in response too jrlambs post...

My goodness jrlamb, who is paying you to write all this far fetched, absent of any truth, garbage? ?Lamb?? Beware of the wolf in sheep?s clothing!? Nothing ?lamb like? about this, but so thick with passive aggressive, biased, prejudice, closed mined, opinionated ,hate based, propaganda it isn?t even funny. Are you sure your not one of these prosecutors, or maybe one of those ?wanna journalist? they hooked up with to spread their lie?s? Anyway let?s go over the FACTS shall we?

By your own statement, ?Proving this charge is pretty easy for the government. Imagine Nadia being interviewed by an investigator. "Nadia, we have time records that show you signed in, clocked in, scanned your thumb print etc. on the day in question at the CIA facility so we know you were at work??

Well in all your wild ?imagining? jrlamb, ?IF? there was a shred of evidence of wrong doing on Nada?s part during the CIA investigation, which came about not by their accusation?s against Nada, but the FBI?s, I highly doubt the CIA would have exonerated her of all charges, nor would Chief Bob Grenier went on to account for Nada?s accomplishments, integrity and honor. It was the FBI jrlamb, not the CIA that started this ridiculous smearing and chastising of our American Patriot Nada Prouty, not Nadia. Before I go any further jrlamb, if you can?t get the simple, factual details right like the appropriate agency and Nada?s name, who is going to take your conjured up story with anymore then a grain of salt? Let?s continue?

Your fairy tale continues? ?This is just our opinion and we want to look good with a high profile catch.?

Now that is the most truthful part of your entire story! Actually they continued to insinuate they had information and could never produce it. Why? Well back to your and their fairy tales of which is not based on reality, truth or any real evidence.

?You will notice Nadia produced a letter from the CIA indicating that she had been cleared and exonerated. Slow down and think about it. Exonerated about what??

Of any wrong or inappropriate actions, at any time, any where? Even Fedral Judge Avern Cohn stated to Nada, ?You have rendered extraordinary services as an agent of the FBI and the employ of the CIA. At no time did you ever jeopardize or compromise the integrity of any work assignments to improper behavior or inappropriate conduct.?

?Nadia was part of a criminal conspiracy involving three sham marriages.?

Yes and never once did she deny that fact. In fact during the entire 2 years of her training in the academy and all the back ground checks, there it was, right on the front of her application! And they told her it was not an issue. It would not interfere with her career or service with the FBI. But if you want to talk about conspiracies, let?s look at the agents that conspired to defraud the United States Government by conjuring up a fairy tale much like yours, so they could personally benefit with reward monies, and awards, and career advancements, all from tax payers money! Not to mention a 3 year investigation all the tax payers? money spent on what? A sham marriage when she was 19 years old? WOW! How they can show their face in public is beyond me. How can they sleep at night? That is the equivalent of a spitting on the side walk charge! It?s a law, but who would actually arrest a patriot for such a pity charge, that has risked her life daily and risked her unborn child?s life in war zones to defend her adopted country that she loves and still would defend with her life to this day. Who has apprehended terrorist that have taken American lives and threaten the safety of America and all in it! What vile, evil, creature could conspire to harm such an extraordinary and genuinely righteous human being that has given so much and so freely to this country and all in it? I encourage any and all that have a problem with this to contact the Department of Justice Office and fill out their on line form, or contact them direct and tell them you want Nada?s case re investigated, and this time put the real criminals behind bars! http://www.justice.gov/oig/FOIA/WasteReportingForm.pdf

cont....

On to your what if?s? not worth it.

On to your Lastly?. A sleeper agent? LOL? I think her outstanding and remarkable record indicates she is anything but a sleeper?ok so now we are back to the beginning? There was no real reason to suspect Nada of anything other then their own conspiracy to defraud the Govt. There were no unauthorized documents viewed by Nada, nor could they produce any evidence of any, or any anything for that fact? so its all back to a sham marriage of a 19 year old teenager? Now that?s a real reason good reason to spend 3 years, hundreds of thousands of tax payers dollars, ruin a woman?s career, take away from America our patriot, smear her reputation and take away the citizenship that she has earned 1000 times over, throw her family in complete tragedy and trama, and endanger all their lives for the rest of their lives..too promote a couple of desk jockeys give them awards and line their personal pockets!NOT! How sick, sad and disgraceful is that? Its tragic.

Elder Jimmy replied to a CBS News member's comment on this story.
These people have nothing to do, they seem like Government workers. This is a travesty and appalling. They had nothing on this lady, so they felt it was necessary to destroy this patriot. Because I am aware of the calless, uncaring, cold, and sinful nature of these security agencies, when asked if I would be interested in applying for a job and working for one or both of these Secret organisations, I quickly replied with out hesitation, 'Only if I wanted to secure a place for myself within HELL!'

[truep]

We can all stand up for Nada, as she stood up for her country and us and tell the President to give our patriot back her citizenship, and pardon the senseless charges...
http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/nada-prouty-plight-for-justice

or
http://www.change.org/petitions/view/nadas_plight_for_justice

Then we can all request the Department of Justice re investigate Nada's case for unfair investigations.

She did more for America than I bet most of the posters.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again.
This lady risked her life for the American Constitution.
While she came to the US illegally and her in-law is an extremist, so are some of the people prosecuting her for it.
I say, She deserves mercy for her past illegitimate immigration.
She became a citizen of the US as a patriot under fire. The failures of our own bureaucracy allowed opportunity for her to join the FBI and the CIA. She earned her citizenship that is something you shouldn't take away from her.

[berlinfoto-2009]

If one stands up against the illegal actions of our government, On the side of supporting the United States Constitution, whereas she supported the bureaucracy in a Blatantly Illegal War, who has done the most for his or her nation?
It is my belief that if she was in both the FB,I and latter the CIA, then she should clearly have enough sense. to know that the war was and is illegal.
I addressed the Illegal actions of her railroading I do not particular support her, but it is clear to me that the government is wrong in its actions against her.
The citizens of the United States have no Idea how this thing called Engineered Entrapment works or how it has affected their nation. It is difficult to prove entrapment, it is nearly impossible to prove Engineered Entrapment, I happen to know more about it, for almost 45 years and I am only 60 there have been constant attempts to entrap me. And believe me when I was 15, I certainly was not thinking about committing any crime, it was not crime that brought about the Engineering of Entrapment.
The USG wanted a bargaining chip to get me to do a job that I clearly did not want to do, nor was I cut out to do the job.
I would like to have my day in court, but I know that the cowards would not allow the evidence that I need to support my case. I know just what "HOME COOKING IS", I have toured that road as well.

[deenworks]

She got what she deserved.

[zwooten727]

What an *****. sounds more like she is a patriot. what have you done for your country beyond sticking your finger somewhere.

[truep]

people who say that couldn't fill Nada's shoe's for a day... and if they tried she wouldn't want those shoes back... they would be full of fecal matter...

[scaryoldlady]

What, she defended a country that stabs her in the back?? What have YOU done for this country?

[berlinfoto-2009]

All of us Americans should thank our government for having such a great system of ENGINEERING CRIME AND ENGINEERING ENTRAPMENT.
I am quite sure that if she had ever passed classified information to some one in the Arab World or to any citizen of a foreign nation both the FBI and CIA would have video and audio of the transaction.
The government's own surveillance record of her should be allowed to be used in her own defense.
.................
One day I had two Arabs screaming at me "Say the words "I wish to harm President Bush".
I complied, except I added one word, "NOT"......So what I said was...."I DO NOT WISH TO HARM PRESIDENT BUSH".
Today knowing what I have learned, about digital audio recording, and manipulations software I suppose that I should have not even said that.
For I am quite sure that two Arabs worked for one of the secret agencies of the USG.
In the United States it is though, they never had a Constitution, or a Bill of Rights.

[fleabus7]

Whatever happened to her? Did she get jailed, deported, rewarded, or what?

[truep]

http://nadaprouty.com
You can find out all the truth and facts there. They took her citizenship but did not deport her as she would be a instant target now that her name has been outed to the world as a warrior against terrorist and who actually brought many to justice!
