The Story of Adam Gadahn

Adam Gadahn, a.k.a. Azzam the American, was a senior operative and spokesman for Al-Qaeda. And he was one of the Americans killed in the January drone strikes. Gadahn grew up and was homeschooled on a remote goat farm in Riverside County. He left home as a teenager in the mid-90s and moved in with his grandparents in Orange County. Soon after, he converted to Islam and became radicalized at a mosque in Garden Grove. Eventually he moved to Pakistan, joined Al-Qaeda, and in 2006 he became the first American in 50 years to be charged with treason.
