Family: Bomb suspect not same since being in Iraq

Although authorities say Kevin Brown tried to take bomb material onto a plane at Orlando International Airport, his former mother-in-law said this afternoon that he is not a terrorist.

"This is not him," Karen Holt said today from South Carolina. "It has to be a mental issue for him. I know if they looked through his medical records...I'm sure they will see."

Brown and Holt's daughter, Kamishia, 25, married about three years ago. The couple met while serving in the U.S. Army, Holt said. About a year later, the two separated, and Holt doesn't know what Brown has been up to since then.

Her daughter told her that Brown wasn't the same since returning from Iraq. He was put on medication for depression, Holt said.
