Teen terror suspect takes light approach at his arraignment
CHICAGO (MCT) — A Hillside teenager accused of attempting to bomb a Loop bar appeared relaxed and upbeat Thursday in federal court, even cracking a joke when asked about facing life imprisonment.
During his arraignment, Adel Daoud, a 19-year-old high school graduate, was asked a series of routine questions, including whether he understood that he faced up to life in prison if convicted of the terrorism-related charges. Daoud responded by asking the judge whether it could get any worse than that.
