Details of JFK Airport Terror Plot Code-named The Chicken Farm



They met at the Gertz Plaza Mall, a small shopping center in the Jamaica section of Queens, one day last July.

Russell Defreitas was a retired cargo worker allegedly trying to put together a team to mount a terrorist attack on Kennedy Airport.

The other man was an informant, a convicted drug trafficker working undercover for the FBI, hoping to befriend Defreitas.

The first encounter went smoothly and it wasn’t long before Defreitas, a Guyanese-born U.S. citizen, was confiding in his new buddy.

With dazzling speed, a discussion about the civil war in Lebanon led to talk of an audacious terrorist plot, authorities said.
