An alleged child predator who prosecutors say was fixated on terrorist content is asking a court to toss crucial evidence over legal technicalities.
The FBI conducted illegal warrantless searches when investigating Pennsylvania man Aniruth Kuppusamy for allegedly manufacturing and possessing child pornography and sexually enticing a minor, his lawyer said in an Aug. 14 motion to suppress evidence. Kuppusamy also promoted the designated global terrorist group Terrorgram, which encourages randomized mass casualty attacks, and claimed to be personally connected to the group in discussions with his alleged victim, prosecutors claim. Biden-appointed U.S. Judge Mary Kay Costello scheduled an Oct. 1 hearing to assess the defense’s motion.
