FBI Informant Offered Liver Transplant to Brother of Terror Suspect

The mother of Bronx terror suspect David Williams said the government snitch who cozied up to her son promised him a liver transplant for his dying brother – and even drove the pea-brained plotter to Queens to face charges of groping a woman on a city bus.

[efoods]Elizabeth McWilliams said the informant, Shahed (Malik) Hussain, befriended her son in March as the family worried how it would afford a transplant for the would-be bomber’s brother, who has a terminal illness, the immunity disorder sarcoidosis.

“He promised he would take care of it,” McWilliams said, recalling what her son – whom she called “Little David” – told her about Hussain’s pledge.

“He said, ‘Don’t worry, mom. I’m going to be able to give you money on [Thursday] to help you with the Lord.’”
