PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Some residents of this famously
liberal city are unnerved, not only by a plot to bomb an annual
Christmas tree-lighting ceremony last week but also by the police
tactics in the case.
They questioned whether federal agents crossed the line by training
19-year-old Somali-American Mohamed O. Mohamud to blow up a bomb, giving
him $3,000 cash to rent an apartment and providing him with a fake
bomb.
