Biography
Hatem Naji Fariz, PIJ Tampa co-defendant; convicted on some counts; 37 months federal prison + 36 months supervised release.
2010s audit verified October 12, 2026: The official BOP locator identifies Hatem Naji Fariz, register 40941-018, and reports release May 26, 2010, correcting the one-day discrepancy. The number also appears in the historical support roster. Arrest in 2003 does not establish uninterrupted custody through 2010; the unsupported total was cleared. Sentencing and continuous admission dates remain unresolved.
Documented case history
A separate Northern District of Illinois judgment, case 1:04-cr-00633, records guilty pleas to wire fraud and money laundering and sentencing on August 18, 2006. The 51-month terms run concurrently with each other and with the Florida sentence in 8:03-CR-77-T-30TBM. These are not 51 additional months served after the Florida term. October 3, 2006 at 2 p.m. was an ordered surrender deadline, not proof of actual admission.
The Department of Justice National Security Division’s March 26, 2010 statistics identify Hatim Naji (Hatem) Fariz in the Middle District of Florida row 137, record conviction June 21, 2006, and sentencing July 25, 2006 to 37 months. This supplies the missing Florida sentencing date and remains separate from the August 18, 2006 Illinois judgment already recorded. The concurrent sentences are not added together and an ordered surrender date is not treated as actual admission; interrupted custody remains unresolved.
