And so the worst part is when I notified the US government, so at the time I'm living in Indonesia,
And I'm like, I go to the embassy and I told them what happened.
I showed them the letter from the FBI.
I spoke to LEGAT, which is the FBI liaison at the embassy and the RSOs, everybody else that should be concerned with this.
And I said, listen,
I said, I have a credible threat against me.
I'm in their backyard because we have JIJA, we have AQ affiliates.
There's a lot of bad guys in Indonesia and that whole part of that world particularly.
And so what happened was the reason I...
I made a big deal out of it was, it is a big deal, but the reason it's even a bigger deal for me is three years ago, a little over three years ago, my wife was deported.
Although we'd been in the United States several times, married in the U.S., everything was up and up.
She got...
What happened was we came back during COVID.
We could not go back to Indonesia because of travel restrictions.
So three weeks turned into three months, turned into six months.
At about the six month mark, she was hit by a sheriff's patrol car one night at 90 miles an hour in a high speed pursuit.
She was sitting as a passenger in a parked car in the turning lane when he rear-ended her, literally 90 miles an hour, put everybody in the hospital.
So while she was going through physical therapy for that, they discovered she had cancer.
So now she's got to go through cancer treatment.
So now we're over the six-month mark, which we honestly didn't know we had a six-month limit to five-year unlimited visa.
