The FBI did not detail why they returned to Shamsud-Din Jabbar’s home except to say they were “conducting law enforcement activity.”
Our cameras did spot a car at the property being picked up by a tow truck.
Based on public records KPRC 2 obtained, the plates are registered to Jabbar’s mother. On Thursday, KPRC 2′s Joy Addison spoke with Jabbar’s brother , who noted his personal life included three children and two divorces, with the most recent one finalized in 2022.
