Miami Seven claim entrapment

Attorneys for several of the Miami men charged with discussing a terrorism plot on American soil claim their clients were entrapped by an FBI informant.

Albert Levin, the court-appointed attorney for suspect Patrick Abraham, said he believes his client was ensnared by the informant.

There was "a lot of talking going on by the informant and more listening by the defendant and or the defendants," Levin told Fox News Channel host Bill O'Reilly.

Nathan Clarke, a lawyer for another suspect Rotschild Augustine, agreed.

"With respect to my client, from what I can read in the indictment, there's going to be a question of whether there's even sufficient evidence to sustain the burden of proof on conviction," Clarke said.

maybe they will learn from this- if you are going to entrap people- at least plant evidence first. they look like a bunch of idiots- the fbi not the miami seven.
