Texas imam Wisam Sharieff arrested for allegedly guiding ex-student in making child porn.

A Texas imam, Wisam Sharieff, has been arrested and charged federally with conspiracy to produce child pornography. The charges stem from an investigation involving his ex-student, Blake Barakat, who allegedly produced and shared child pornography. Sharieff is accused of using religious teachings to guide Barakat in creating the illegal content. The case, described as "egregious," led to Sharieff's arrest and detention in Alabama. AlMaghrib Institute, where Sharieff taught, condemned the actions and reaffirmed its commitment to student safety.
