California man behind anti muslim film ordered jailed

The mystery surrounding the man behind the rudely produced anti Islamic video that sparked violence in the Middle East took a strange turn after he appeared in court and gave yet another name in a string of different names.Arrested on Thursday after authorities said he violated his probation from a 2010 check fraud conviction Nakoula Basseley Nakoula told a judge his real name was Mark Basseley Youseff. He said hed been using that name since 2002 even though he went by Nakoula in his fraud case.The full story about Nakoula and the video Innocence of Muslims still isnt known more than two weeks after violence erupted in Egypt and Libya where Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three others were killed in Benghazi. Violence related to the film has since spread killing dozens more.Citing a lengthy pattern of deception and the potential to flee U.S Central District Chief Magistrate Judge Suzanne Segal ordered Nakoula to remain in prison without bond until another judge can hold a hearing to determine if he broke the terms of his probation.The court has a lack of trust in this defendant at this time Segal said.Prosecutors noted Nakoula had eight probation violations including lying to his probation officers and using fake names. He could face new charges that carry a maximum two year prison term .After his 2010 conviction Nakoula was sentenced to 21 months in prison and was barred from using computers or the Internet for five years without approval from his probation officer though prosecutors said none of the violations involved the Internet. He also wasnt supposed to use any name other than his true legal name without the prior written approval of his probation officer.
