ALEXANDRIA, Va. A Lebanese American businessman who was a key witness in special counsel Robert Mueller's report and who helped broker the release of American hostages is slated to receive at least a 10-year prison sentence on child sex charges. Nader's name appears more than 100 times in the Mueller report. In the 1990s, Nader served as a broker to facilitate the release of American hostages held in the Middle East. Nader also pleaded guilty to a charge of transporting child pornography images in Virginia in 1991. The images found in Naders phones at Dulles International Airport ended up not being the basis for January's child-pornography conviction.
