Duo tied to New Mexico compound planned attack on Grady hospital, documents show

ATLANTA — Channel 2 Action News has learned about a planned terror attack on Grady Memorial Hospital.

Channel 2's Lauren Pozen was at the hospital in downtown Atlanta looking over newly-filed court documents from prosecutors that name the hospital as a possible target, as well as some other big-name institutions

Investigators say they learned about the plot from 11 children who were rescued on the property. The remains of a 12th child, a 3-year-old boy from Clayton County, were also found on the property.

The children told investigators that Siraj Ibn Wahhaj and his partner, Lany Leveille, intended to "confront corrupt institutions or individuals".

Included in the documents are a 10-page hand-written document called "Phases of a Terrorist Attack".

Prosecutors say Leveille "expressed his displeasure with Grady Hospital due to the treatment her mother received there."

Prosecutors in New Mexico filed the documents as a part of a new motion. A judge previously granted the suspects in this case bond.

Prosecutors want that decision reversed in light of the new information.
