FBI agents traced the emails to Saeed, who admitted his role in the kidnapping during his first court appearance but later recanted. “Right or wrong I had my reasons,” Saeed told the court at the time. “I think that our country shouldn’t be catering to America’s needs.” The statement was ruled inadmissible because it was not made under oath.

Interesting legal system you have here. Note to killers: Confess under oath or walk free.
