A magistrate judge in Brooklyn ordered George Aref Nader, who'd been a key witness in the Mueller investigation and was arrested Monday on federal child pornography charges, to be driven by FBI agents to Virginia on Wednesday for his next court appearance
The man, George Aref Nader, was detained upon his arrival at John F. Kennedy International Airport on Monday for"transporting visual depictions of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct." He has a serious heart condition, according to his lawyer.As a result, US Magistrate Judge Cheryl Pollack ordered him to be transported to Virginia, where he was charged, by two FBI agents. One of the agents is a trained paramedic.
"The charges against Nader came about after FBI agents seized three iPhones from him when he was stopped after arriving at Washington-Dulles International Airport on January 17, 2018, according to court documents, and searched the phones pursuant to a warrant for a matter unrelated to child pornography.CNN previously reported that Nader was also questioned by the FBI on that date, the first of several sessions with investigators from Mueller's office.
