(CNN) A federal judge said Tuesday that Christopher Hasson, the Coast Guard lieutenant accused of plotting a domestic terror attack, should be released to the home of his mother-in-law or father-in-law in Virginia. Day has said that he would hold Hasson's release pending the resolution of that appeal. At a hearing last month, Hasson's public defender, Liz Oyer, said at least one of Hasson's wife's parents lives in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Hasson's wife and adult daughter, as well as his parents and his wife's parents, were in court Tuesday for the hearing. "Third-party custodians are expected to be the eyes and ears of the court," Day said.
