(Pittsburgh, PA) According to a release from United States Attorney Eric G. Olshan on Thursday, a former resident of Upper St. Clair was indicted by a Pittsburgh federal grand jury for supporting the terrorist organization Hizballah and lying to a department or agency of the United States. Twenty-four-year-old Jack Danaher Molloy was charged and arrested on December 6th, 2024. Molloy falsely told FBI agents at Pittsburgh International Airport on October 20th, 2024 that he did not have anything to do with Hizballah and that he did not have a meeting with someone from Syria. During that same month, Molloy traveled to Pittsburgh after making stops in Lebanon and Syria. Olshan confirmed that the actual sentence has not been confirmed yet and every false statement is eight years maximum in prison for Molloy with a $250,000 fine, or both. Olshan also stated that the material support offense could result in a twenty-year prison sentence for Molloy with a fine of $250,000, or both.
