This is a guy I can't name, whose voice we've also changed.
See explanation above.
You saw him actually take money.
This guy estimated that Adnan had stolen many thousands of dollars over time, tens of thousands, maybe $100,000.
This sounded fantastical to me, so I checked with Makbul Patel.
He was president of the Islamic Society of Baltimore at the time.
He said he'd never heard of Adnan taking donation money, but that it does happen from time to time, someone stealing or trying to.
There are people who take shoes, he added.
My own brand new shoes were stolen.
Twice he said that happened, once in New York and once in Baltimore.
But if Adnan did take money, he said, there's no way it was a big amount.
He said on average, people donated about $2,500 at Friday prayers, maybe up to $3,000 if it was a special occasion.
That money was used to pay the bills, he said, keep the electricity and heat on.
If they were even $100 short on any given week, they'd have noticed.
So sure, maybe $20 or $40 here or there, but not hundreds and thousands out of the question.
Adnan says it's true.
He did take donation money.
When I first asked him about it, he was unhappy.
I've asked him so many, frankly, insulting things, so many nosy and inappropriate questions, and he's never given me pushback.
But this was the last straw.
