A devout Muslim man, and "aspiring lawyer" threw his baby daughter off the Driscoll bridge on the Garden State Parkway, across from Staten Island, NY last week. She is presumed dead, however, her body has not yet been found.

He had snatched the baby from the mother's home in East Orange, NJ. Afterwards he drove to pray at a Mosque in Atlantic City.

Shamsid-Din Abdur-Raheem had been involved in a custody battle with the baby's mother.

Now background on Abdur-Raheem is being revealed, including a short stint at the office of the US Attorney General in Washington D.C.

From WND:

He was also an intern in Washington, D.C., with the juveniles section of the Office of the Attorney General, according to March 2009 press release from Stockton College. He was fired after only a month for missing work and not completing assignments. He lashed out during his termination, and security personnel escorted him out of the building.
