"Retired Deputy Inspector Raymond Festino emphasized the need for vigilance, stating, 'They're without question on high alert. I would say a good reason is, number one, that there are a lot of people who entered this country that the government is unaware of, and unaware of what their intention is.'"
"'You could have a bunch of sleeper cells that are sitting around, waiting to be activated. And now that there's a conflict going on in Iran, those sleeper cells could be activated,' Festino warned, highlighting the potential for increased threats."
A retired NYPD officer warns that Americans in major cities must stay alert for sleeper cells after a recent thwarted terror attack in New York City. Two ISIS-inspired teens, Ibrahim Kayumi and Emir Balat, were indicted for attempting to use weapons of mass destruction during an anti-Islam protest. Kayumi claimed ISIS motivated their actions, while Balat pledged allegiance to the group. The officer expressed concerns about potential copycat attacks and the presence of unknown individuals in the country who may pose a threat.
