Tampa (FL) - An engineering student from Egypt at the University of South Florida plead guilty and was sentenced to 15 years after a 12-minute video in Arabic was discovered on his notebook back in August, 2007.
The video explaind how to convert a remote control from a toy car purchased at Wal Mart into a remote bomb detonator. It ultimately led authorities to YouTube where the video had been uploaded earlier and viewed hundreds of times.
