Sorry if already posted elsewhere:

I consider Sheik a friend, but hes impossible to defend on all sorts of things.

This one probably easier than most, amazingly. Hes done all sorts of [censored]....... and it seems strange that the thing that he might get permanently nailed with........ was somewhat innocent and he already served his time for.

Apparently, while he was working in CA........ he was arrested and served time for sexual battery.

I believe he spent nine months in prison. The sexual battery stemmed from a sexual relationship he had with a minor.

He was 23 and she was 17.

He was picked up on the Friday night of Labor Day weekend (you can tell if youve pissed someone off cause they do this to force you to spend at least one extra day in jail or, in this case, the immigration tank).

Despite having probably the best lawyer in town, he couldnt get bail. Despite the reports that bail was set at 100k, to the best of my knowledge in all immigration cases...... the Dept of homeland Security has to approve bail....... and in this case, it was denied.

Who the [censored] knows what he did or who he pissed off.

If it was a simple immigration case..... it shoulve been over already. He has a family (wife and child)...... has multiple legitimate businesses and to the best of my knowledge pays his taxes.

It would seem like someone has it out for him based on what most people i know tell me SHOULD happen in a case like this and what IS happening to HIM.

All I know is....... in this day and age...... it wouldnt be so far fetched that he pissed the wrong guy off (god knows if anyone could do it, he could) and they remarkably found a name similar to Sharam Al Sheikan on a terrorist watch-list somewhere and now think his businesses might be a front for laundering terrorist money through online poker sites or some ungodly, who the [censored] knows, [censored] like that..........

Point is, theres more going on here i think....... than anyone knows........

But those are the facts to the best of my knowledge........ from talking to friends of Shawn.... and Sheiky himself.

Dept of Homeland Security didn't even exist in 1995.
