Jose Padilla was arrested as he exited a plane in CHICAGO. He was a US citizen picked up on a tip about a dirty bomb, no evidence that was ever presented to a judge, and incarcerated in a federal facility. When his detention was challenged because of the government having no evidence to charge him he was labeled an enemy combatant and transferred to a military brig.
