Terror suspects reportedly had FBI targetsBy GIOVANNA DELL'ORTO
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER
ATLANTA -- One of 7 men accused of plotting to blow up the Sears Tower admitted to being
a member of the group that swore allegiance to al-Qaida, and told investigators it planned
to bomb five FBI buildings, a prosecutor said Thursday.
Lyglenson Lemorin, a Haitian national, also admitted to attending military training in Miami
and other parts of Florida to carry out the mission, Assistant U.S. Attorney Richard
Getchell said during Lemorin's hearing before a U.S. magistrate.
Lemorin is one of seven men suspected in the terror plot who were arrested last week at the
group's alleged hide-out in a Miami warehouse.
Getchell said the alleged ringleader, Narseal Batiste, told an FBI informant who posed as an
al-Qaida member that with the terror group's support, he could get his plans going in less
than a year.
