Ex-Bin Laden henchman freed from NJ prison after judge deems him too fat for jail

An Osama bin Laden henchman convicted in two deadly 1998 bombings is free in the U.K. after getting released three weeks early from a New Jersey prison — thanks to a judge who feared the terrorist was way too obese to survive the coronavirus behind bars.

Adel Abdel Bary, 60, was freed on Oct. 9 after spending 21 years in prison for his role in the 1998 al Qaeda bombings of two U.S. embassies in Africa that left 224 people dead, including 12 Americans.
