It's very nice to meet you.
Turns out he was there on a terrorism charge.
He was the imam of some mosque in New York and somebody was trying to sell a Stinger missile to somebody.
He translated the document, the bill of sale, and he got wrapped up in this terrorism case.
So I get called into the lieutenant's office the next day.
And usually if you're being called into the lieutenant's office, you're going straight to solitary.
So I hear my name, Kiriakou, Lieutenant's office, immediately.
Always with immediately.
And they know you can't do it immediately because all the doors are locked.
So I wait for a 10 minute move period.
The bells ring and I go to the Lieutenant's office.
I said, you wanted to see me.
And they have this guy's picture on a computer screen.
I said, I don't know him.
