The individual, whose identity and precise location have not been released, was turned over to US forces in mid-September and is accused of fighting for ISIS in Syria, according to court documents. He's met with the Red Cross twice, but has otherwise been held incommunicado with the outside world. The Justice Department said the man had been advised of his rights to remain silent and consult with an attorney, and the man indicated he wanted one. "The agents explained that due to his current situation, it was unknown when he would be able to have an attorney, and the individual stated that it was OK and that he is a patient man." "No further questioning of the individual for law enforcement purposes has taken place," Wyer added.
