CBS – In the Fall of 2014, Boston Police Captain Robert Ciccolo reported his 23-year-old son, Alexander, to the FBI because he “had a long history of mental illness and… had become obsessed with Islam.”
When authorities arrested him on July 4, 2015, they found rifles, handguns, machetes and several partially constructed molotov cocktails in his possession. A recent convert to Islam, Alexander Ciccolo is now accused of plotting aterrorist attack on the dorms and cafeteria at a crowded state college campus.
