Who is Khaled Awad?
Awad is believed to be from Egypt and has been living in the US for four years. The Boston Herald reported that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has also been roped in to investigate the case, which could mean Awad came to the US illegally or is living on an expired visa. During his arrangement, prosecutors confirmed Awad had no criminal records in Massachusetts but was charged in Florida for battery and theft. He currently lives in Brighton, but it is unclear what he does.
