WATCH: Entrapped
Video By Razan GhalayiniIn 2007, five men were arrested and
accused of plotting to attack the Fort Dix military base near
Trenton, New Jersey. Among them were the brothers Dritan, Shain and
Eljvir Duka. Their case involved highly paid government informants with
criminal histories, one of whom worked over the course of roughly 18
months to attempt to implicate them in a plot. Though none of the Duka
brothers would ever plan any putative plot, they were ultimately all
sentenced to life in prison. They remain incarcerated today.
